New Training Program Enhances Precision Strikes And Minimizes Civilian Harm
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) has launched a cutting-edge ’targeting cell’ officers’ course, designed to train commanders to coordinate precision strikes while minimizing civilian harm. The course integrates intelligence, ground forces, air power, drones, artillery, and naval assets, and emphasizes IDF ethics and values in avoiding harm to innocent people. According to course commander Lt.-Col. ‘R’, the training has been shaped by lessons from the Gaza war and aims to provide officers with the skills to make quick and complex decisions in high-pressure situations. This development was first reported by The Jerusalem Post.
