An explosive-laden drone reportedly launched from Lebanon targeted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence in Caesarea on Saturday. Officials confirmed the drone struck a structure near the leader’s holiday home, though Netanyahu and his wife were not present during the incident.
The Israeli military stated two additional drones were intercepted after crossing into Israeli territory, escalating regional tensions. No casualties were reported, according to emergency services.
This marks a rare direct security breach involving Netanyahu’s personal space, raising questions about cross-border security measures. Analysts suggest it could signal shifting tactics in regional conflicts.
