Netanyahu said he is unfazed by the alleged drone strike on his house.

After a purported drone attack on his private residence, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has stated that he is committed to his military goals.

He added in a post on X, "It was a grave mistake for Iran's proxy Hezbollah to try to kill me and my wife today."

A drone was "launched towards" his home in the northern seaside town of Caesarea on Saturday morning, according to his office earlier.

No one was hurt, and Mr. Netanyahu and his spouse weren't home at the time.

According to the Israeli military, three drones were fired from Lebanon, one of which struck a Caesarean building.

They did not verify the degree of any damage or whether the building was a part of the prime minister's home.

According to US publication Axios, the drone did strike the house.

The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said at 08:19 local time (06:19 BST): "Three unmanned aerial vehicles entered the nation from Lebanon in the past hour.

"Two of the planes were stopped. No one was hurt when another plane struck a building in Caesarea.

The prime minister of Israel uses two private residences, in Caesarea and Jerusalem, and has also visited his official property in Jerusalem, Beit Aghion, which is undergoing renovations.

The purported attack occurs as Israel is ready to launch a "deadly, precise, and surprising" defence in response to Iran's massive ballistic missile attack on October 1.
