The Israeli prime minister and his wife were not home at the time of the strike, his office said. The episode highlighted the challenge drones pose to Israel’s air defenses.

The Israel Defense Forces have said that approximately 55 projectiles were launched by the Hezbollah toward northern Israel on Saturday morning.

A drone was launched toward Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's home on Saturday, the Israeli government said. Sirens wailed Saturday morning, warning of incoming fire from Lebanon. The drone was launched towards Netanyahu's home in Caesarea, but neither he nor his wife were home, his spokesperson said in a statement. There were no injuries.
