SeattlePI.com Tuesday, 17 September 2024
Lebanese state media and security officials say dozens of people have been injured in Beirut’s suburbs after their handheld pagers exploded. A senior military intelligence official and an official with a Lebanese group with knowledge of the situation said Tuesday that pagers carried out by Hezbollah members were detonated. The second official says it was believed to be an Israeli attack. The state-run National News Agency reports that in Beirut’s southern suburbs and other areas “the handheld pagers system was detonated using advanced technology, and dozens of injuries were reported.” It was not immediately clear if people were killed. The Associated Press reached out to the Israeli military and they declined to comment.
