Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: 1tv.ge.
Newly released details of the attack on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s private home in Caesarea indicate that the attack was carefully planned. The four suspects who fired the flares at Netanyahu’s residence had a clear plan and had conducted preliminary reconnaissance of the site. This is reported by the Time Ukraine Israel portal, citing data from Israel’s Channel 7.
Planning and preparation of the attack
According to the investigation, the attack was carried out according to a pre-arranged plan. A group of four people, including Itay Yafeh, Amir Sadeh, former Brigadier General Ofer Doron and another suspect, who has not yet been named, organised the attack. Doron, who was a key figure in the group, also provided it with flares.
The suspects had carefully prepared for the action: they arrived at a hill located just 170 metres from the Prime Minister’s house and recorded the moment of the shooting in order to make the footage public and stimulate protest activity.
Reaction to detection by the police
After the shooting, as the group was leaving Caesarea, they spotted a police patrol. To avoid detention, the suspects split into two pairs and hid with friends for several hours. Later, in the early morning, three members of the group were detained, and the fourth was arrested later.
Consequences of the incident and the authorities’ response
The incident took place last Saturday, when two flares were fired at Benjamin Netanyahu’s private home in Caesarea. The Prime Minister and his family were not at home at the time, so no one was injured.
According to Shabak and police officials, the shooting is a serious escalation of the situation, and investigations are already underway. A joint statement by the authorities emphasised that the incident would have significant consequences and that all those involved would be brought to justice.
This case is yet another confirmation of the high level of threats facing Israeli politics and requires decisive action by law enforcement agencies to prevent similar attacks in the future.
