Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a strong response following an attempted drone attack on his Caesarea residence, believed to be carried out by Hezbollah operatives linked to Iran. In remarks reported by The Times of Israel, Netanyahu declared that those responsible for the assassination attempt against him and his wife had made a “grave mistake,” signaling a sharp escalation in the ongoing conflict between Israel, Hezbollah, and Iran’s regional influence.
Shortly after the attack, Netanyahu reaffirmed his government’s resolve to continue military operations, undeterred by the aggression. Addressing Hezbollah and its Iranian supporters, he stated, “We will continue to take down your terrorists.” Netanyahu also vowed to secure the release of Israeli citizens taken hostage, promising that Israel would retrieve those held in Gaza and protect its northern residents.
This drone strike is the latest in a growing series of hostile actions between Hezbollah and Israel, as the situation in Gaza has heightened tensions in the broader region. As both sides continue to exchange threats, Hezbollah has intensified its military operations, prompting Israeli airstrikes on Hezbollah targets in Lebanon.
