Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office said a drone was launched toward his residence in Caesarea after the military reported a drone from Lebanon had "hit a structure" in the central town on Saturday.


"A UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) was launched toward the prime minister's residence in Caesarea.


The prime minister and his wife were not at the location, and there were no injuries in the incident," Netanyahu's office said in a statement.


It was not immediately clear whether the structure hit as reported earlier by the military was his residence.


Hezbollah said it fired rockets at a military base near the northern Israeli city of Haifa on Saturday after the Israeli army reported a barrage of projectiles launched from Lebanon.


The "large salvo" of advanced rockets hit a military base east of Haifa, said Hezbollah, which has vowed to intensify attacks on Israel weeks into an all-out war that erupted on September 23.


Israel's attacks in Lebanon and Gaza are pushing Iran to take "legitimate steps", Turkey's foreign minister said Saturday, in an apparent show of support for Tehran's October 1 missile attack on Israel.


"Israel's aggressive stance is forcing Iran to take legitimate steps," Hakan Fidan said at a joint press conference in Istanbul with his Iranian counterpart Abbas Araghchi.
