JERUSALEM: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said a drone was launched toward his residence in Caesarea on Saturday (Oct 19), after the military reported a drone from Lebanon had “hit a structure” in the central Israeli town.
“A UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) was launched toward the prime minister’s residence in Caesarea. The prime minister and his wife were not at the location, and there were no injuries in the incident,” Netanyahu’s office said in a statement.
It was not immediately clear whether the structure reported hit by the military earlier was his private residence.
The military said three drones had been fired from Lebanon on Saturday and it had intercepted two.
A barrage of projectiles were fired from Lebanon into northern Israel on Saturday, with sirens blaring across northern Israel at regular intervals.
