Three Arrested After Flare Attack on Netanyahu's Residence

Israeli police detain suspects linked to flare incident at Prime Minister's home amid ongoing political unrest.

Overview

  • Israeli police, in collaboration with the Shin Bet, arrested three individuals suspected of firing flares at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's residence in Caesarea.
  • The suspects, reportedly prominent figures in anti-government protests, are being held for a five-day investigation under a court order, with a media blackout on further details.
  • The incident is part of a series of security threats against Netanyahu, including a previous drone attack claimed by Hezbollah.
  • Political leaders have condemned the flare attack, with some labeling it as terrorism rather than a form of protest.
  • Ongoing protests against Netanyahu have persisted for over a year, initially sparked by controversial judicial reform plans and now fueled by dissatisfaction with the government's handling of conflicts with Hamas and Hezbollah.
