Two flash bombs land in Netanyahu’s residence

Two flash bombs were hurled into Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence in Caesarea located in northern Israel, on Saturday, police said.

Bombs landed in the garden of his residence, according to police.

Neither Netanyahu nor his family were present and there was no damage reported, it added in a statement.

Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz said the incident crossed “all red lines” in a post on X early on Sunday.

“It is not possible for the Prime Minister of Israel, who is threatened by Iran and its proxies who are trying to assassinate him, to be subject to the same threats from home,” Katz said.

He also called on security and judicial agencies to take the necessary steps.

Israel’s President Isaac Herzog condemned the incident in a post on X and said an investigation was underway.

“The incitement against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu crosses all boundaries. Throwing a flash bomb into his house tonight is crossing another red line,” Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir also said on X.
