On November 5, the international Blue Flag 2017 aerial exercise took off in the Israeli Air Force’s Ovda airbase in southern Israel. The exercise is the largest aerial military drill in the history of Israel, according to Israeli sources.
The US, Greece, Poland, France, Italy and Germany and an unnamed country are participating in the aerial exercise along with Israel. It’s the first time India takes part in the Blue Flag exercise.
The Israeli Army announced that the aerial exercise is aimed at improving the technical abilities of the participated countries in order to strengthen the “diplomatic cooperation between the countries.” The Israeli Army added that the countries will “practice different situations and scenarios,” during the exercise.
