Lebanon (Palestine Foundation Information Center) A drone has reportedly made a direct impact on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s place of residence in Caesarea, southern Haifa, Israeli media reported, noting that he and his wife “were not present at the location.”
Details available revealed that the drone was able to directly hit its target, causing casualties post-detonation. Israeli occupation forces admitted that air defenses were unable to intercept the drone as it pierced through occupied territories.
Israeli media reported a major failure in an interception operation, as an infiltrating drone flew right beside the military helicopter searching for it on the outskirts of occupied Haifa.
Three drones made their way from Lebanon to Haifa, with only two being detected and intercepted, according to the Israeli military. The third one, however, struck a building in Caesarea accurately, which was later confirmed to be Netanyahu’s residence. Eyewitnesses confirmed that the explosion was huge.
The drone flew about 70 kilometers from Lebanon and directly hit a building in Caesarea, with shrapnel reaching a neighboring building, according to Yedioth Ahronoth.
Sirens sounded in military bases in the Glilot settlement in northern Tel Aviv after the drone entered occupied airspace. However, for the first time ever, sirens went off in Tel Aviv without being activated on the internal front’s mobile application. Thus, settlers were not notified of any evacuation orders.
The Israeli occupation army also noted that the drone kept hovering overhead for an hour before striking the building, describing the event as “a tough morning.”
