Saturday's Hezbollah drone attack targeting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's private residence in Caesarea scored a direct hit on the premier's home, the military censor cleared for publication on Tuesday.

Following the attempted assassination, security measures for ministers and other officials have been "significantly" reinforced.

"Iran tried to eliminate the prime minister of Israel—it will not escape responsibility," a senior Israeli government official told Ynet.

According to reports, the assault included three drones, one of which scored a direct hit on a bedroom window at the Caesarea residence. Netanyahu and his wife, Sara, were not home at the time.
