Israel's Prime Minister has said he will continue to hunt those he believes are responsible for the deaths of three teenagers whose bodies were found on Monday.
Speaking to reporters, Benjamin Netanyahu said: "Whoever was involved in the kidnapping and the murder will bear the consequences. We will neither rest nor slow down until we reach the last of them and it does not matter where they will try to hide."
Gilad Shaar, 16, Eyal Yifrach, 19, and Naftali Frenkel, 16, went missing while hitchhiking home from the Jewish seminaries where they studied near Hebron.
Jewish youths mourn next to the graves of the three boys Their bodies were found beneath a pile of rocks in an isolated spot close to the West Bank city some three weeks after they went missing.
Israel has accused Hamas of abducting the boys, and Mr Netanyahu has warned the militant group "will pay".
Mr Netanyahu also warned Israel's response would include stepping up military activity in Hamas-controlled Gaza if rocket fire out of the territory continues.
"The Israeli Defence Force has been active in recent days against Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip and here as well we are still active," he said.
"If need be, we will expand the operation as much as is needed."
His promise came as audio was released of a phone call one of the boys made to police in which he claimed to have been "kidnapped".
The Israeli army has launched its largest ground operation for 10 years. In the recording, Gilad Shaar is heard whispering: "They've kidnapped me."
Voices are also heard speaking Hebrew, with one person saying: "Keep your head down, keep your head down!"
The call, which was reportedly made shortly after the abduction, was initially dismissed by operators as a hoax.
Emergency hotline workers have been disciplined for the mishap, which delayed rescue efforts for several hours.
The deaths of the three teenagers have prompted angry calls for retribution from Israel. In Jerusalem, several hundred Israeli youths took part in a march and screamed for revenge.
The Israeli army also launched its largest ground operation in the West Bank for 10 years and arrested nearly 400 Hamas operatives.
Overnight the Israeli air force carried out airstrikes on 34 targets, including a Hamas compound, the military said.
