'Hungarian firm made pagers that exploded'
The Morning Standard|September 19, 2024
EXPLOSIONS went off in Beirut and multiple parts of Lebanon in an apparent second wave of detonations of electronic devices, Hezbollah officials and state media said on Wednesday, reporting walkietalkies and even solar equipment being targeted a day after hundreds of pagers blew up.

Lebanon's health ministry said Wednesday that at least 14 people were killed and 450 others wounded by exploding electronic devices in multiple regions of the country..

Several blasts were heard at the funeral in Beirut for three Hezbollah members and a child killed by exploding pagers the day before. In the southern coastal city of Sidon a car and a mobile phone shop damaged after devices exploded inside of them.

A Hezbollah official said that walkie-talkies used by the group exploded. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to speak to the media.
