Inside Story: Israel On Maneuvers 2008 04 10 (Al-Jazeera) avi                        

Israel has been practicing drills, testing its preparedness if attacked.

Israel is carrying out its largest maneuvers in years.

The drills included a test of the preparedness of Israel to withstand an attack on its urban centers with non-conventional weapons and even drills on urban warfare.

On the other side, UNIFIL has detected a marked increase in the movements of Hezbollah fighters, and a movement of positions.

Across the border, the Syrian defense ministry announced that it is forming a task force to "combat" natural disasters.

Inside Story asks what the real objectives of the latest drills are, and whether Israel is preparing for another possible confrontation with its neighbors.
