US soldiers stand at the Qayyarah air base, where US-led troops in 2017 had helped Iraqis plan out the fight against the Islamic State in nearby Mosul in northern Iraq, before a planned US pullout on March 26, 2020. – The 5,200 US troops stationed across Iraqi bases make up the bulk of the coalition force helping hunt down Islamic State group sleeper cells across the country. Around 300 coalition troops left the western Qaim base in mid-March, handing it over in full to Iraqi troops. Today, more troops were set to leave. In the coming weeks, they will also leave the expansive base in Kirkuk. (Photo by AHMAD AL-RUBAYE / AFP)

The drill will be carried out “to maintain the readiness and competence of the forces,” it wrote on X. “An alert movement of the security forces will be felt in the area,” it added. Arrests were reported across the West Bank this morning, with 11 people detained by the army in Tulkarm, Ramallah, and Halhul.
