The occupation army conducted maneuvers in the West Bank according to scenarios from October 7th.

According to the Ma'ariv newspaper, the occupation army conducted this week the largest drill in the past twenty years in the West Bank.

It noted that the West Bank division and the newly established "Giladi" division were tested, and the exercise was based on scenarios and lessons learned from the attack on October 7, 2023.

The drill covered 40 different scenarios, including attacks with drones and gliders on the front line and settlements in the West Bank, incursions from the eastern border, hostage-taking, and more.

The exercise was carried out throughout the West Bank, along the front line, and in the valley.

However, the drill was conducted amid a rise in Jewish terrorism, according to the newspaper.

In this month alone, 86 attacks by extremist settlers against Palestinians were recorded, an increase of 25 incidents compared to last year's harvest season.

The newspaper stated that this began with Defense Minister Israel Katz's decision to cancel administrative detention orders and continues with Benjamin Netanyahu's silence following the difficult events that occurred the day before yesterday in the West Bank, during which dozens of extremists attacked Palestinian areas and burned properties.
