U.S.-Israel Military Drill Concludes
(Jerusalem Post) Anna Ahronheim - 300 American troops from the U.S. European Command joined 400 IDF troops in Israel for the week-long Juniper Falcon drill, which tested coordination in the event of a ballistic missile threat against Israel. Brig.-Gen. Erez Maisel, head of the IDF's Foreign Relations Division, said the drill focused on the "three Cs: common language, confidence and capabilities" of troops to enable the maximum protection of Israel. Washington and Jerusalem have signed an agreement that would see the U.S. assist Israel with missile defense in times of war.
