The Israeli army is refining its preparation in urban areas. She built a training camp that exactly reproduces a Palestinian town.

Eliminating Hamas members holed up in a building: this is the exercise for Israeli soldiers. To train in the best conditions, the army identically reproduced a Palestinian town in an urban area. “All the wars we see take place in cities and not in forests”comments Lieutenant-Colonel Mati, commander of the urban warfare training center.

Training carried out outdoors and underground

The city has nine districts. Training for Israeli army soldiers in this urban area is carried out both outdoors and underground. “One of the most complicated things about these tunnels is where they are built”says the Lieutenant-Colonel Mati. The soldiers remain determined to defend their country and say they are ready to take the next step.
