Police hold snap drill simulating major terror attack

Police wrap up a snap drill in southern Israel simulating a response to a large-scale terror attack.

The exercise, which included officers from police units such as the Border Police and special forces, tested the units’ ability to respond to a number of threats, as well as to work with other security bodies such as the IDF, police say in a statement.

Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan attends a portion of the drill simulating a Hamas attack from the sea and warns the terror group’s leaders they’ll pay a “heavy price” in the next war with Israel.
