🔒 REPORTED HEZBOLLAH ASSASSINATION PLOT: The Israel Security Agency reportedly thwarted a Hezbollah operation targeting Yair Netanyahu at his residence in Miami.
Ronen Cohen, chairman of the advisory body to the ministerial committee responsible for Shin Bet affairs, said an assassination attempt against a member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s family was stopped at the last moment following the assassination of Ali Khamenei.
According to i24NEWS, members of the Hezbollah cell had reached the floor below Yair Netanyahu’s apartment before the plot was disrupted.

He credited IDF forces with reducing terrorist attacks in Judea and Samaria to among their lowest levels in recent years. He also condemned nationalist crime, saying it damages security and local communities, and pledged continued cooperation with the Israel Security Agency and Israel Police to eradicate it.
Zamir described Judea and Samaria as a permanent operational focus requiring rapid responses while maintaining stability throughout the sector.
The Israeli Air Force separately intercepted a UAV near the Israel-Syria border. Its origin remains under review, and no sirens sounded under existing protocol.
