A series of coordinated explosions targeting Hezbollah's communication devices in Lebanon over two days has resulted in at least 21 deaths and thousands of injuries. On Tuesday, pagers exploded, killing 12 people, including two children, and injuring around 2,800. The following day, walkie-talkies detonated during a funeral in Beirut and other locations, killing nine and injuring over 300.
