Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed that Iranian-backed groups attempted to assassinate him after a drone from Lebanon struck Caesarea, reportedly targeting his residence. Netanyahu labeled the attack as a "grave mistake" and asserted that Israel would not be deterred in its fight against its enemies. He vowed to ensure the safety of Israeli citizens and continue military operations, stating, "Anyone who tries to harm Israel’s citizens will pay a heavy price." This incident follows rising tensions with Hezbollah, which has not claimed responsibility but conducted rocket attacks on Israel.
