Hezbollah Pagers, Walkie-Talkies Explode, Kill 30
News summary

A coordinated series of explosions involving pagers and walkie-talkies used by Hezbollah members in Lebanon has resulted in over 30 deaths and thousands of injuries. Israeli intelligence allegedly orchestrated the attack by infiltrating Hezbollah's supply chain with devices rigged with explosives, using front companies and sophisticated planning. The operation, which began in 2022, highlights significant vulnerabilities in Hezbollah's operational security and has escalated tensions between Israel and Hezbollah, raising fears of a larger conflict. Both Hezbollah and Iran, its primary backer, are facing operational challenges due to this disruption. Israel has not confirmed responsibility, but sources indicate the involvement of Unit 8200, a specialized Israeli military intelligence unit known for high-tech operations. Diplomatic efforts by the US and UN aim to prevent further escalation, but the situation remains volatile.
