A series of explosions targeting communications devices used by Hezbollah across Lebanon has resulted in at least 32 deaths and over 3,250 injuries. The devices, including walkie-talkies and pagers, were reportedly manufactured by Japan’s Icom Inc., which ceased production of the model a decade ago. Israel has not officially claimed responsibility, but Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant announced a shift in focus to the northern front, indicating a new phase in the conflict. Lebanese officials, including Information Minister Ziyad Makari, have expressed concerns over Israel's actions and are investigating the incidents. The explosions have intensified fears of a broader conflict between Hezbollah and Israel, with the Lebanese health ministry urging citizens to donate blood due to the high number of casualties.
