    JERUSALEM – A drone was launched toward Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's home in the northern Israeli town of Caesarea on Saturday, his spokesman said, adding that the premier was not in the vicinity and there were no casualties.

    The military said Hezbollah fired dozens of rockets and several other drones into northern Israel on Saturday, killing one person and injuring at least nine. In northern Israel, some of the rockets were intercepted, but one hit a residential building, according to police.

    There were no casualties reported, according to the Israeli ambulance service, and police said explosions had been heard in Caesarea, the coastal town where Netanyahu has a holiday home.

    Hezbollah by midday on Saturday had claimed 11 attacks on Israeli military targets since midnight, all of them with salvos of rockets. There was no immediate comment from it on any drone attacks or attacks targeting Netanyahu's home. The group has been trading fire with Israel since last October.

    Later Saturday, Israeli media published a video of Netanyahu walking in a park.

    "Nothing will deter us, we will keep going until victory," he said in the video filmed by one of his aides.

    The volley from the Iran-backed Lebanese group came as health officials in Gaza, where Israel has been battling Palestinian militant group Hamas for more than a year , said Israeli strikes had killed more than 30 people across the territory in the last day.

    Pledges from Israel and its enemies Hamas and Hezbollah to keep fighting in Gaza and Lebanon have dashed hopes that the death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar might hasten an end to more than a year of escalating war in the Middle East.

    Sinwar, a mastermind of the Oct. 7, 2023, attack that triggered the Gaza war, was killed by Israeli soldiers in the Palestinian enclave on Wednesday.

    Psalms 2:1-8[1]Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?[2]The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,[3]Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.[4]He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.[5]Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.[6]Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.[7]I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.[8]Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
