Shin Bet confirms that drone hit Netanyahu's home

Israel's Shin Bet has confirmed that a drone fired from Lebanon on Saturday struck the residence of Prime Minister Benjamin Netayahu in the seaside town of Caesarea.

Previously, it was reported that the drone was launched toward his home, but it has now been confirmed that it hit the structure. 

Netanyahu and his wife were not present at the time, and no casualties were reported. 

Earlier on Tuesday, Mohammad Afif, the head of Hezbollah's media office, said that the group took "full and sole responsibility for targeting Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's house".
