The Venetian Macao casino resort is going to be attacked this Friday. Fortunately, it’s only a simulation drill that is being organized by the city in order for the police and public-sector departments, as well as the casino, to understand how best to respond to a real attack.

Among those set to participate are the Judiciary Police, the Public Security Police, the Fire Services Bureau and the Customs Service. The exercise will be coordinated by the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau (DICJ, for its Portuguese acronym) and the Unitary Police Service. The UPS issued a press release on the exercise, which it has dubbed Wolf Hunting 2019, adding that the Venetian was chosen, in part, due to its proximity to the barracks of the People’s Liberation Army, China’s military branch.

The drill is meant to simulate an assault on the Venetian led by armed assailants. It will include fake bomb threats and injuries, as well as hostage-taking exercises.

This will be the second attack exercise held for the Macau gaming sector in the past 14 months. In January of last year, the city conducted a similar drill at the Galaxy Macau, which is located in front of the Venetian.
