After a drone from Lebanon hit Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence in Caesarea in the early hours of Saturday, Bibi responded saying that nothing could deter them from winning the war.
“We are continuing our battle with Iran’s other terrorist proxies,” he said, referring to the killing of Yahya Sinwar by the IDF. “Well, two days ago we took out Yahya Sinwar, the terrorist mastermind whose goons beheaded our men, raped our women, burnt babies alive.We took him out,” he said.
“We are going to win this war,” he added.
When asked if something could deter him, Netanyahu responded with a straight “no.”
The attack on Bibi’s house came after Hezbollah vowed to escalate the tensions by deploying additional guided missiles and explosive drones into Israeli territory.
Meanwhile, Hezbollah said that it had fired rockets into northern Israel, including at a military base near Haifa, following reports from the Israeli army of a barrage of projectiles launched from Lebanon. The group claimed that a “large salvo” of advanced rockets struck a military facility east of Haifa, as it vowed to intensify attacks on Israel amid the ongoing conflict that began on September 23.
In addition, Hezbollah reported launching a salvo of rockets at the northern town of Safed, coinciding with the Israeli army’s report of 115 projectiles targeting the country on the same day. The projectiles predominantly targeted northern Israel, triggering sirens that blared across the region at regular intervals.
