Lebanon experienced a devastating wave of explosions on Wednesday, resulting in at least nine fatalities and over 300 injuries. The blasts, which targeted communication devices like walkie-talkies predominantly used by Hezbollah, occurred during a funeral for victims of a similar attack the previous day that had killed 12 people, including children. Eyewitnesses reported panic as explosions erupted, particularly in the southern suburbs of Beirut and the Bekaa region. Hezbollah has accused Israel of orchestrating the attacks, warning of retaliation, while the United Nations has expressed concerns over escalating tensions in the region. The explosions have raised fears of further violence and instability, particularly given the ongoing conflict between Hezbollah and Israel amid the Gaza war. Security officials speculate that explosives may have been secretly placed in the devices prior to their delivery to Hezbollah.
