Iran blames Hezbollah for attack on Netanyahu’s home; FM Katz: Lies, you’re responsible

Iran’s United Nations mission says that Lebanon’s Hezbollah terror group, armed and financed by Tehran, was behind a drone attack on the residence of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

“This action was taken by the Lebanese Hezbollah,” the mission says in response to a question about Iran’s role in the attack, according to the official IRNA news agency.

The Tehran-backed terror group, which fights Israel in Lebanon’s south, has not yet acknowledged the attack.

Foreign Minister Israel Katz rejects Iran’s statement blaming Hezbollah.

“The primary proxy, the tentacle Iran created, funded, armed, trained, and now controls in all its operations, is suddenly portrayed as an independent entity. Your lies and false pretenses won’t help you – you are responsible,” he writes on X.
