The IDF held a special advanced training session focusing on riots today (Wednesday, February 27, 2013), in light of recent violent riots in Judea and Samaria. The training included a simulated riot to which IDF commanders responded.

Commander of the Judea and Samaria Division: “Our emphasis is to operate precisely, selectively, professionally, with significant restraint, with an understanding that that’s the right thing both ethically — in line, of course, with the values of the IDF — and in terms of the stability of the security situation.”
