Israel's prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has warned Hezbollah that his country's strikes on the militant group's locations in southern Lebanon was not the 'end of the story' after an exchange of fire that killed three people in Lebanon.

Hezbollah said its attack on Israel was in response to the killing of one of its senior commanders, Fuad Shukr, in early July. The armed group said it had concluded the first phase of its retaliation following the barrage. Israel said it carried out pre-emptive strikes across Lebanon in anticipation of a major strike by the Lebanese group. Though tensions appeared to calm later on Sunday, Netanyahu said Israel would keep up the pressure.
Israel and Hezbollah have been exchanging cross-border fire since 8 October when the militant group opened a second front in the north of Israel in support of Hamas
