๐Ÿ“น In the attack, a message was received on the pager, and as then detonated shortly.

Pagers are usually read, after an encrypted message is received, which caused the severe injuries near the face and hand.

Blood is needed in all hospitals in Beirut, and south Lebanon. A lot of CCTV footage is circulating of the event. A massacre!

What a better pre-emptive attack than litterly taking out hundreds out of service in one day. Regardless, today's events are an opportunity, that uncovered an exploit either technical limitation in these devices that overcharge them or spyware.

๐Ÿ“ท In a video, a pager exploded at a home of someone and literally punched a whole through his dresser and the countertop.

On the phone, he asks if "the sheikh" is using the new one old pager, which might imply an issue with either but not both.

The ones using pagers are fighters or security members, but unfortunately many on the road took photos of their faces leading to exposing them. This is an issue each time. Most are now on social media.

๐Ÿ“ฐ Only recently, US and Israeli media uncovered that Hezbullah fighters are using pagers as a means of fast safe communication with encrypted messages to replace phones in war time.

Today, pagers were attacked, causing this unprecedented mass casualty event. The IDF leaked to media that the current pagers that exploded was delivered to Hezbullah just 3 months ago.

Which implies the old safe ones were replaced with compromised new one.

The article is Reuters: Cell phones, which can be used to track a user's location, have been banned from the battlefield in favor of more old-fashioned communication means, including pagers and couriers who deliver verbal messages in person, two of the sources said. Hezbullah has also been using a private, fixed-line telecommunications network dating back to the early 2000s, three sources said.

In case conversations are overheard, code words are used for weapons and meeting sites, according to another source familiar with the group's logistics. These are updated nearly daily and delivered to units via couriers, the source said.
