The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) will conduct live-firing and military exercises across various locations from 10 to 17 March 2025. These activities will take place on the islands of Pulau Sudong, Pulau Senang, and Pulau Pawai, as well as in the Pasir Laba SAFTI Live-Firing Area. The SAF has assured that all necessary safety and control measures will be in place, although loud noises are expected.
The public is urged to steer clear of these islands and their surrounding waters, as well as the prohibited waters off Changi Naval Base and Tuas Naval Base. Sea vessels navigating the Western Johor Straits are instructed to remain within the 75-metre Navigable Sea Lane to avoid the live-firing boundary, where live ammunition and flares will be used.
In addition to the live-firing exercises, military drills will be conducted in several areas, including Seletar, Marsiling, Jalan Bahar, Neo Tiew, Lim Chu Kang, and others. These exercises will involve the use of blanks and thunderflashes.
The SAF has emphasised that trespassing into restricted areas is an offence punishable by law, and the public is advised to comply with all safety advisories to ensure their safety and the smooth conduct of the exercises.
