Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, warned Hezbollah against underestimating the Israeli army amid an exchange of cross-border fire with the Lebanese group, Anadolu Agency reports.
Hezbollah made a serious mistake about us in 2006 and is doing so again now. It thinks that we are weak as a spider web, and now sees what kind of spider we are, Netanyahu said as he met soldiers in Kiryat Shmona settlement in northern Israel.

The Israeli army will do whatever is necessary to bring security back to the north, and I tell you that this is my policy, Netanyahu said.
