The military spokesperson for the al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, Abu Obeida, praised Tuesday the top-tier operation in which the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah targeted the residence of Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Abu Obeida pointed out that this operation sends a message to the leaders of the Israeli occupation entity stating that the martyrdom of Resistance leaders does not weaken any movement but rather increases its momentum and determination to inflict further pain on the occupation.

The al-Qassam spokesperson also stressed that Hezbollah's operation conveys to the leaders of the Israeli occupation regime that they "will not escape the rightful retribution of the free and resisting forces of the Ummah, even if they manage to evade the blindfolded international justice."

Earlier on Tuesday, Hezbollah’s Media Relations Officer, Mohammad Afif, claimed from Beirut’s Southern Suburb the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon's responsibility for the operation targeting Netanyahu's residence in Caesarea on October 19.

During a press conference, Afif addressed Netanyahu, warning, "The eyes of the Resistance's fighters are watching, and their ears are listening. If our hands did not reach you this time, we have the days, nights, and the battlefield between us."

The operation sparked significant Israeli concerns over Hezbollah’s drones and the threat they pose to Israeli air defenses, particularly as they reached one of the most heavily guarded areas within the occupation entity.

Israeli media reported a couple of days ago that a drone had reportedly made a direct impact on Netanyahu's place of residence in Caesarea, southern Haifa, noting that he and his wife "were not present at the location."

Details available revealed that the drone was able to directly hit its target, causing casualties post-detonation.

The Israeli occupation military admitted that air defenses were unable to intercept the drone as it pierced through occupied territories. 

The media reported a major failure in an interception operation, as an infiltrating drone flew right beside the military helicopter searching for it on the outskirts of occupied Haifa.

Three drones made their way from Lebanon to Haifa, with only two being detected and intercepted, according to the Israeli military. The third one, however, struck a building in Caesarea accurately, which was later confirmed to be Netanyahu's residence. Eyewitnesses confirmed that the explosion was huge. 

The Israeli Army Radio quoted a military source as saying that the security services are "investigating the security gaps that allowed a drone to reach Netanyahu's residence in Caesarea," an incident seen as "a very flagrant security failure."
