# include [included.yml] under the [tasks] directory

- hosts: target_servers
  become: yes
  become_method: sudo
  tasks:
    - include_tasks: tasks/included.yml

ubuntu@dlp:~$
mkdir tasks

ubuntu@dlp:~$
vi tasks/included.yml
# OK to set task definition only

- name: General packages are installed
  apt:
    name: "{{ packages }}"
    state: present
  vars:
    packages:
    - tar
    - wget
