(JNS) For the past three weeks, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has worked mostly from a safe room in the basement level of the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem, Israel’s Channel 12 News reported on Sunday.
Netanyahu has been conducting most of his routine schedule and meetings from this secure location since a Hezbollah drone hit his private residence in Caesarea on Oct. 19.
In the wake of the attack, security officials cited in the report recommended that the Israeli premier avoid remaining in one location for too long, as well as postponing the wedding of his son Avner.
Hezbollah’s Oct. 19 drone attack included three drones, one of which scored a direct hit on a bedroom window at Netanyahu’s Caesarea residence. The premier and his wife were not home at the time.
Following the attempted assassination, security measures for government ministers and other officials were “significantly” reinforced, according to the report.
“The attempt by Iran’s proxy Hezbollah to assassinate me and my wife today was a grave mistake,” the prime minister said after the incident. “This will not deter me or the State of Israel from continuing our just war against our enemies in order to secure our future. I say to Iran and its proxies in its axis of evil: Anyone who tries to harm Israel’s citizens will pay a heavy price,” he added.
