The Prime Ministers Office has confirmed the private residence of Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu was targeted in a drone attack from Lebanon on Saturday.
No injuries were reported in the incident.
In a short statement, the PMO says that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his wife Sara were not home at the time of the attack, reported The Times of Israel.
Israeli air defences reportedly shot down two other drones that were fired from Lebanon.
The incident happened just a day after Israel confirmed the killing of Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar.
Israel Thursday claimed that its military executed Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar during an operation in Gaza.
Yahya Sinwar, the chief architect of the Oct 7, 2023 attack on Israel that triggered the Gaza war, has been at the top of Israels wanted list ever since. But he had managed to elude detection by possibly hiding in the warren of tunnels that Hamas has built under Gaza over the past two decades.
Previously leader of Hamas in the Gaza Strip, he was named as its overall leader following the assassination of former political chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran in August.
Last month, Israel also killed Hasan Nasrallah, leader of the Iranian-backed Hezbollah movement, in Beirut besides executing many of the groups top leadership.
Hamas-led gunmen attacked Israel on Oct 7, 2023, killing some 1,200 people and taking more than 250 hostages into Gaza. In a retaliatory action, Israel has killed more than 42,000 people, turned much of Gaza into rubble, and displaced most of its population.
