This attack follows a similar incident on October 19, when a drone targeted Netanyahu’s home in Caesarea. Netanyahu had accused Hezbollah of attempting to assassinate him and his wife. Hezbollah later claimed responsibility for the drone strike.
The attacks come amid heightened tensions between Israel and Hezbollah. Since late September, Israel has intensified its airstrikes on Hezbollah targets in Lebanon and deployed ground troops, following a year of limited cross-border skirmishes that began with Hezbollah’s actions related to the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Caesarea, located about 20 kilometers south of Haifa, has been within the reach of Hezbollah’s regular strikes.
