Residents of Nahariya and Western Galilee witnessed unusual activity from the Israeli Air Force on the morning of November 9th, as dozens of fighter jets flew at low altitudes. These were part of extensive military exercises aimed at defending Israel's northern border.

The maneuvers involved the 91st Division, the Northern Command, and the Air Force. A primary objective was to test the army's readiness to repel a large-scale invasion, incorporating lessons learned from the October 7th attack. Pilots were tasked with independently assessing simulated aerial and ground enemy incursions without prior intelligence on potential attack vectors.

Squadrons were brought to combat readiness, with pilots practicing high-speed, low-altitude maneuvers. According to a military source, fighter jets can reach an attack zone and assess the ground situation faster than drones or combat helicopters. This tactic allows for rapid response to invasions and aids in repelling enemy advances.
