Today, September 17, activists of "Hezbollah" across Lebanon experienced a mysterious series of explosions involving communication devices. According to reports by the evening, 9 individuals have died and 2,750 were injured.
Sources indicate that the explosive pagers originated from a new batch that the organization received in recent days. Some operatives reportedly noticed the devices overheating and disposed of them before they detonated. The exact cause of the explosions remains unclear, as they occurred in several regions of Lebanon where "Hezbollah" maintains a strong presence. Israel has declined to comment on the incident. The internet is flooded with videos of the explosions, depicting their violent nature.
The Lebanese Internal Security Forces confirmed that the wireless communication devices exploded in various parts of the country, with a significant concentration in the southern suburbs of Beirut, a stronghold of "Hezbollah." The intelligence agency urged residents to keep roads clear for ambulances that are transporting the injured to medical facilities. Reports indicate serious injuries and fatalities.
Medical personnel have also begun discarding their pagers, fearing a second wave of explosions, while authorities continue to investigate the causes of the blasts. An anonymous Hezbollah official stated that the pager explosions represent "the greatest security breach" the group has endured since the onset of the war between Israel and "Hamas."
Media reports indicate that, in recent months, "Hezbollah" fighters have been prohibited from using mobile phones to avoid surveillance by Israeli intelligence. Consequently, they have started to utilize pagers and other outdated communication methods en masse.
