At the time of the attack, the Prime Minister of Israel was not at his home in Caesarea.

The Israeli army stated that no one was injured during the attack, and the air defence system also intercepted two other drones.

Alarm in Tel Aviv

An air raid alert was also declared in Tel Aviv, located further south.

The air defence detected a drone heading towards the Glilot district, where the headquarters of key Israeli intelligence services, including the Mossad, are located.

Escalation in the Middle East

Hezbollah, supported by Iran, has been regularly shelling northern Israel since the conflict in the Gaza Strip broke out a year ago, leading to decisive responses.

For several weeks, Israel has been conducting intense air raids and a ground operation in southern Lebanon, declaring that their goal is the elimination of the threat from Hezbollah.
