As per news report of Rt.com, the drills will be considered during a meeting between US military officials and Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz scheduled for Thursday, Reuters reported, citing a senior member of the Biden administration. While the US official declined to discuss details of the potential exercises, a report by Israel's Kan broadcaster earlier on Wednesday suggested they would involve “dozens” of aircraft – including F-35, F-16 and F-15 fighter jets, reconnaissance planes and refueling tankers – adding that they would be conducted far over the Mediterranean to simulate the distance the jets would have to travel to carry out a strike on Iranian nuclear facilities, about 620 miles (1,000km).
