Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed on Monday Hezbollah's anti-tank missile attack on Israeli forces near Avivim on the northern border, and said that Israel was determined to take action against anything that threatened it.

In a short video, Netanyahu warned Hezbollah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah that Israel had "operated with determination and responsibility. We protected the safety of our citizens and the lives of our soldiers. The man in the bunker in Beirut knows exactly why he's in a bunker."

"We will continue to do what we need to do to protect Israel's security – at sea, on land, and in the air, and we will also continue to take action against the threat of precision-guided missiles," Netanyahu added.

Nasrallah himself was expected to speak about Sunday's events in an address Monday evening. Earlier Monday, Lebanese media outlets reported that Hezbollah was claiming it had footage that disproved Israel's reports that no Israeli soldiers or civilians had been wounded in the missile attack.

The Hezbollah-affiliated Al-Manar television station reported that a Hezbollah official had informed them that the footage would be made public "at the appropriate time."

Reports in Israel said that as part of Sunday's clash on the border, the IDF had staged an evacuation to make Hezbollah think that soldiers had been wounded. On Monday, an Israeli security official said that deceptive tactics were part of warfare, and that it was impossible for Israel to keep reports of wounded secret in events when they occur.
