Shin Bet and police said on Saturday evening that two flares were fired at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's private residence in Caesarea, and fell in the courtyard of the house. No damage was reported in the incident. A joint statement from the security bodies said Netanyahu and his family were not home at the time.
Police started investigation
Police and Shin Bet also said they have launched an investigation and condemned the serious incident, which reflects a dangerous escalation. Apart from this, the Iraqi militia has claimed five drone attacks on Israeli targets. Shia militia group Islamic Resistance in Iraq has claimed responsibility for five drone attacks in southern and northern Israel on Saturday.
Iraqi militia carried out a drone attack.
According to a statement by the Shia militia, the group's fighters carried out four drone attacks on southern Israel. Two of the drones targeted important sites in the port city of Eilat and two others targeted military sites in the region. The fifth drone targeted a 'military' site in northern Israel.
Attacks in support of Palestine and Lebanon
According to news agency Xinhua, the statements did not provide detailed information about the targeted sites nor were any casualties reported. The group said that the drone attacks were carried out in solidarity with our people in Palestine and Lebanon. At the same time, the group has also vowed to continue targeting enemy strongholds.
Since the Israeli-Palestinian conflict began in the Gaza Strip on 7 October 2023, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq has repeatedly attacked Israeli and US targets in the region to show support for the Palestinians in Gaza. The militia has stepped up its attacks on Israel after Israel stepped up attacks against Hezbollah in Lebanon on 23 September.
