Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wants to postpone the wedding of his youngest son Avner, scheduled for the end of November.
This was reported by the state television and radio company Kan. According to its information, this is caused by security threats, including the risk of a drone attack.
The wedding was originally scheduled to take place on November 26 in the formal garden at the Ronit farm north of Tel Aviv, but Netanyahu has now advocated postponing the celebration so as not to expose guests to undue risk. On October 28, Kan reported that Israeli cabinet meetings were being held for security reasons moved to a secret place.
Now, according to the broadcaster, Netanyahu has also asked about the need to move the meetings of the Knesset (parliament), which began a new session this week after a long vacation. According to Kan, the prime minister's greatest concern is the threat of drone attacks.
Early on the morning of October 19, Netanyahu's residence in the seaside town of Caesarea, located between Tel Aviv and Haifa, was attacked by unmanned aerial vehicles launched from Lebanon. Two of them were intercepted, one was able to hit the house, damaging Netanyahu's bedroom window. The prime minister himself and his wife were not at home at that moment, no one was injured. Immediately after the incident, Netanyahu accused “Iranian agents” of trying to kill him and his wife. The Lebanese Shiite organization Hezbollah later claimed "full and exclusive responsibility" for the attack.
