SINGAPORE: Thousands of police and armed forces personnel fanned out across Singapore on Monday (Oct 17) in the country's largest counter-terrorism exercise held to date.
In a media statement, the Singapore Police Force (SPF) said the exercise is part of ongoing efforts by the Home Team and Singapore Armed Forces to test and validate Singapore's multi-agency response plan in the event of terrorist attacks.
The exercise involves more than 3,200 personnel from SPF, Singapore Armed Forces (SAF), the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) and the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) as well as more than 50 volunteers.
As part of the exercise, SPF and ICA officers will conduct joint deterrence patrols at more than 360 locations such as public transport nodes, commercial areas, residential heartlands and checkpoints.
