The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has unveiled plans for a large-scale nationwide field exercise, set to take place from November 11 to 13, 2025. Organized by the Ministry of Interior, the exercise will encompass all seven emirates, involving the coordinated movement of military units, vehicles, and aircraft across multiple regions. The ministry has issued a public advisory urging residents to refrain from photographing or sharing any media related to the exercise. Additionally, citizens are advised to avoid exercise sites and yield to police units to ensure smooth operations. This initiative follows a similar exercise conducted in October 2025 by the National Crisis and Emergency Management Authority in Ras Al Khaimah, aimed at bolstering the nation’s preparedness for natural disasters and crises. Last year, the UAE executed ‘Resilience 1,’ a three-day nationwide drill conducted at police headquarters across the country. These exercises underscore the UAE’s commitment to enhancing its emergency response capabilities and ensuring national security.
