Israel has sent a message to Hezbollah that should the terror group attempt to target Israeli leaders again, the IDF will raze Beirut’s southern Dahiyeh district to the ground, Hezbollah’s stronghold in the Lebanese capital, according to unnamed sources quoted by the Saudi Al-Hadath news channel.

The message, reportedly conveyed through a third party, comes after Hezbollah launched a drone to target Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s private residence in the coastal city of Caesarea on Saturday.

The prime minister and his wife were not at home at the time of the attack and that there were no injuries in the incident, the PMO said.

Al-Hadath notes that this was not Hezbollah’s first attempt to target an Israeli political figure, as it tried at least twice in the past.
