Israeli media quoted  Israeli journalists saying that "the Israeli army allowed journalists to join a maneuver simulating the protection of gas platforms... and they learned about the Navy's intention to defend strategic objectives."

"Israel Hayom" reported that the Israeli occupation forces are talking about various maneuvers, but this time they revealed a full picture of a maneuver before it was carried out," and mentioned that "there are reports that talked about preparations for a future confrontation with Iran, even if the plot of the maneuver is being under an attack by Hezbollah."

According to the newspaper, a colonel in the Israeli occupation forces said that "we are ready for the worst situation," noting that "our hypothesis is that in the next confrontation, the enemy will launch everything it has - ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones."
