299th "Herev"/"Sword" Druze (ind.) Infantry Battalion
The Battalion is recruited entirely from Christian Druze former militas as an integral component for the protection of the Israeli-Lebanese frontier as required. This is thought to be only a basic training base for the Battalion which allows it to maintain an entirely separate ethnic identity.
