As Part of a Home Front Drill, Israeli Inner Cabinet to Meet Underground

JERUSALEM, June 20,2011 (WAFA) - The Israeli inner cabinet headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will  hold its meeting Monday in the forfeited site that was built in Jerusalem to protect cabinet members in case of an emergency situation, according to Israeli reports.

This comes as part of a nation-wide home front drill, which started Sunday and will last for a week, as a simulation exercise in case of an attack on Israel or even of a natural disaster.

The site was equipped with developed technological systems that can help in emergencies like earthquakes and an attack with chemical or biological weapons or even nuclear weapons.

More than 100 foreign officials arrived in Israel to monitor the drill and learn about the different ways to deal with such emergencies.
