The Israeli Defense Force (IDF) did not report any casualties at the incident, as Netanyahu and his wife were not in their home at the time, according to NBC News. The incident follows the killing of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar by Israeli forces, the man allegedly behind the Oct. 7, 2023 terrorist attacks on Israel that began the Israel-Hamas war.

Netanyahu had hoped the death of Sinwar would be the “beginning of the end” for the Iranian-backed paramilitary organization Hezbollah enough to end the war. However, the group, which is close allies with Hamas, will continue to escalate the conflict, according to NBC.

“In the last hour, three unmanned aerial vehicles crossed into the country from Lebanon,” Netanyahu’s office said according to the BBC. “Two of the aircraft were intercepted. Another aircraft hit a building in Caesarea, no injuries.”

Hezbollah has been responsible for the majority of the attacks, as the IDF continues to strategically target strongholds of the group in Lebanon, according to the BBC. The IDF said that 55 rockets have been launched into Israel so far this Saturday.

Netanyahu has two private homes, one in the capital of Jerusalem and one in Caesarea, as well as the official Prime Minister’s residence in Jerusalem as well, according to the BBC.

The Lebanon Health Ministry reported that on the same day, two people died in an Israeli strike on the Christian-majority town of Jounieh, according to the BBC. The move is unusual, as Israel has primarily targeted Shia-muslim majority areas where Hezbollah is most active.

The Prime Minister’s Office did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

Lebanese security sources have reported their inability to establish contact with this prominent figure, Hashem Safieddine, after Israel allegedly targeted him during airstrikes in the southern Beirut suburb of Dahieh.

Subsequent strikes have hampered rescue efforts, leaving uncertainty regarding Safieddine’s fate, as separate sources have indicated.

When queried during a Friday evening briefing about the possibility of Safieddine’s death in the strike, Israeli military spokesperson Nadav Shoshani stated that the military was still investigating the outcome of the raid.

“Around midnight, we struck the Central Intelligence headquarters of Hezbollah in Dahieh,” Nadav Shoshani said. “When we have more information to share about who was there and what the result of the strike was, we will share it.”

The recent death of former Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah during Israeli airstrikes on the Lebanese capital last weekend has sent shockwaves through the organization. His deputy, addressing the situation shortly thereafter, asserted that a new leader would soon be elected.

Israel has proclaimed that the elimination of Nasrallah marks merely the initial phase of their broader campaign against the group.

An updated assessment suggested that as many as 400 Hezbollah terrorists have been killed by IDF troops in recent days.

During one clash on Thursday, Israeli forces eliminated 15 Hezbollah terrorists, while one IDF soldier was wounded in the battle. Overall, nine Israeli soldiers have been killed since the fighting began with Hezbollah terrorists in southern Lebanon. Like the Hamas terrorist organization, Hezbollah has deliberately embedded itself in civilian structures, including schools, mosques, hospitals and residential buildings, which constitutes a war crime under international law.

The IDF’s 98th and 36th Divisions are currently engaging Hezbollah terrorists in numerous villages and towns in southern Lebanon. In addition, troops have uncovered large caches of weapons left behind by Hezbollah forces.

The IDF announced it is conducting “limited, localized, and targeted raids.” The overall goal of the IDF ground offensive is to neutralize the Hezbollah threat close to the Israeli border and enable the return of some 60,000 evacuated Israelis to their homes in northern Israel after one year.

On Friday, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant warned that Israel has “more surprises in store” and stressed that the IDF had already delivered severe blows to Hezbollah.

“Hezbollah is receiving very severe blows, one after the other. We eliminated [Hezbollah chief Hassan] Nasrallah and we have more surprises in store, some of which have already been carried out and some of which will be carried out,” Gallant stated during his visit to the 36th Division headquarters in northern Israel.

“[Hezbollah’s] missile and rocket division suffered a very heavy blow. A significant part was destroyed as a result of a high-quality and precise operation. Command and control headquarters, communications, the entire leadership of [the elite Radwan Force], and in fact, the entire second and third tiers of command below Nasrallah were eliminated,” the defense minister added.

Gallant also said the Israeli military was currently “carrying out an operation today in several villages, and this process will continue wherever necessary to destroy all the infrastructure from which Hezbollah planned to carry out attacks.”

Since launching an unprovoked attack on Israel on Oct. 8, 2023, Iranian-backed Hezbollah forces in Lebanon have fired over 9,000 rockets, missiles and exploding drones into the Jewish state.

Dozens of Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers have been killed and Israel has responded by stepping up its attacks on Hezbollah forces assets across Lebanon and in neighboring Syria since last week.

In recent weeks, the IDF has eliminated most of Hezbollah’s top leadership, including Sec.-Gen. Hassan Nasrallah, who was killed last Friday in a massive Israeli aerial strike on Hezbollah’s headquarters in the Lebanese capital of Beirut.

The Israeli military has stressed that the current ground offensive in southern Lebanon is limited in scope, and it seeks to wrap up the intensive phase of the operation within a few weeks.

Meanwhile, the Israeli military announced on Friday that it had eliminated Muhammad Rashid Sakafi, a senior Hezbollah operatively, in an aerial strike in Beirut. Sakafi was the head of the terror group’s communications division.

“Sakafi invested significant efforts to develop communication capabilities between all of Hezbollah’s units in all periods of operation, to maintain the flow of information throughout the terrorist organization,” the IDF stated.
