    The "Chariots of Fire," launched in early May, is the Israeli occupation's largest military exercise in decades

The Israeli occupation forces confirmed on Thursday that "Israel" has concluded its "Chariots of Fire" exercises in the Red Sea, which included a Dolphin-class submarine and Sa’ar corvettes.

In a statement, David Saar Salam, the commander-in-chief of the Israeli occupation navy said that "Israeli Navy personnel from the Missile Ship and Submarine flotillas returned this morning from a complex and lengthy training drill in the Red Sea."

The "Chariots of Fire," launched in early May, is the Israeli occupation's largest military exercise in decades, involving troops from all branches of the Israeli occupation forces.

The military correspondent for the Israeli Channel 13, Or Heller, had pointed out that the "Chariots of Fire" exercises, which simulate a multifront war, were last year postponed due to Operation Guardian of the Walls [battle of Seif Al-Quds].

It is noteworthy that the Israeli occupation has been conducting drills over the Mediterranean with the permission of the Cypriot authorities, which saw Lebanon objecting over "Tel Aviv" carrying out drills off its coast.

On his part, Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib received Cypriot Panayiotis Kyriacou to ask for clarifications over the joint military exercises with the Israeli occupation, and the diplomat affirmed that the Israeli exercises were aimed at training the border guard to defend the island.

The response came after Israeli media reported that the exercises are targeted at Lebanon and sparked anger in Beirut, but it seems that despite Cyprus assuring Lebanon that the joint drills are not aimed at the nation, Israeli media is still saying that exercises over the Mediterranean "aim to simulate fighting against Hezbollah in Lebanon."

Additionally, the IOF said the exercises would be carried out in various terrains, including urban and rural areas in mountainous terrain that resemble Lebanon.
