๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ผl๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง The Taiwanese company Gold Apollo said that BAC Consulting KFT based in Budapest had a license to use its brand and made the model of pagers used in the detonations in Lebanon yesterday.
๐Ÿ“ฐ Since yesterday, there has been a lot of details about the Hungarian front-company that was involved in the pager incident.

A simple due diligence would have uncovered many faults, and saved countless lives and avoided sabotage. There was criminal negligence, which we all hope Hezbullah's leadership will punish.

What we know is that Israel started this plan a couple of years ago, and had started selling these faulty pagers to Lebanon in 2022. Their plan preceded 7-October and the current war. Israel was planning a kill switch on Hezbullah.

Back to the company: The Hungarian company that produced exploding pagers for Lebanon generated a revenue of โ‚ฌ665,000.00 with 1 employee.

The production was not even done in Hungary, but most likely in Israel.

The company was registered in Hungary in 2022, at a shady location with a CEO whose LinkedIn is clearly a fake. Read somewhere that the CEO had "spirit possession" on her CV under learned skills or degrees.

Hezbullah took credit for the drone attacks on Biet Hillel and Ya'ra.

Israeli casualties today, injuries and some carcasses, is about a dozen.

The Israeli army issued a statement

"The IDF is now attacking Hezbullah targets in Lebanon to damage and destroy the organization's capabilities and military infrastructure.

Hezbullah has turned southern Lebanon into a war zone, and for decades has armed citizensโ€™ homes with weapons, dug tunnels under them, and used them as human shields.

The Israeli army is working to create security in the north, allowing residents to return to their homes and achieving all other war objectives."

Some Highlights from Sayyed Nasrallah's Speech

- I address the families of the martyrs inside Lebanon and the southern front with the highest congratulations on receiving the Medal of Martyrdom, and wish the wounded a speedy recovery

I thank the government and the medical department in Lebanon for their serious efforts, and everyone who donated blood in various Lebanese regions, as well as those who took the initiative to transport a wounded person, and announced their readiness to donate their organs to the wounded.

- I extend my thanks to our good people and our dear people from all regions and the political and union leaders who stood in solidarity with us. One of the blessings of what happened is the great humanitarian and moral epic we witnessed, unprecedented on the national and humanitarian levels.

- We extend our thanks to the countries that took the initiative to support Lebanon; Iraq, Iran, Syrian, and all the countries that contacted the Lebanese gov and announced their readiness to support.

- What happened was that thousands of pagers were targeted, blown up, and counting. All controls and red lines were crossed.

- Some of the bombings targeted hospitals, pharmacies, markets, shops, homes and cars where many women and children were present.

- On Wednesday, they blew up wireless devices. As a result of the attack, dozens of martyrs were killed. The intention was to target a group of pagers consisting of over 4,000 devices, and upon their detonation, they intended to kill 4,000 people in one minute.

- If we want to shorten the number of these two days to one minute on Tuesday and one minute on Wednesday... the enemy wanted to kill 5,000 people in two minutes.

- We will adopt the term massacre to describe what took place on Tuesday and Wednesday, another to add to the enemy's crimes. War crimes or a declaration of war, you can call it what you want

- One of the manifestations of divine kindness is that many of these injuries were minor and some of the equipment was out of service.

- One of the goals of what happened was to kill 5,000 people. By the grace of God and the high spirits and presence of all our people, a large part of this goal was disrupted.

- We have formed multiple investigation committees to study all theories concerning what happened

- I will not rush into the technical side of thing, as I am waiting for certainty from the investigations we are conducting.

- War is a contest. One day we have the upper hand against our enemy, and one day the enemy has the upper hand against us.

- It was a big test. We were able and will be able to pass this test with our heads held high. This great, powerful and unprecedented blow did not and will not bring us down. Through its lessons, we will become stronger
๐Ÿ‘131๐Ÿ‘Ž29๐Ÿซก20๐Ÿ”ฅ10๐Ÿคฌ3๐Ÿ‘€1
- Our front was effective and exerted great pressure on the enemy, and the evidence is what the enemy does and says. All the forces that the enemy has sent to the north confirm that it is facing a real threat on this front

- The enemy admitted the loss of the north, which forced Netanyahu and Galant to find a solution to this front, which is considered one of the most important fronts of attrition

- Our front is one of the most important negotiating cards that the Palestinian resistance has in order to stop the aggression on Gaza

- A lot of pressure, threats and attacks were exerted in order to stop the southern front, and in this context came the last strike. We have received threats of more strikes through official and unofficial channels if we do not cease fire

- Our answer is in the name of the martyrs and the wounded, that the Lebanese front will not stop until the aggression on Gaza stops, whatever the sacrifices, consequences, possibilities and horizons
๐Ÿ‘131๐Ÿ‘Ž37๐Ÿ”ฅ16๐Ÿซก9๐Ÿ’”4๐Ÿคฌ3
- The enemy aimed to strike the resistance environment, exhaust it, drain it, and subjugate it, and for it to shout to the resistance and say โ€œEnoughโ€

- The statements of the wounded themselves reflect their morale, great patience and determination to return to the field, and this is another response to the enemy

- The enemy also aimed to destroy the resistance structure, strike the command and control systems, strike the largest number of leaders, and create chaos and weakness in our structure. This never happened.

- There was no weakness in the resistance structure for even a moment, and we were ready on the front for any scenario. Our structure is so strong, solid, powerful, equipped, numerous and cohesive that a major crime of this magnitude can not shake it.

- The enemy must realize that it is impossible to harm our structure, determination, and will. It is foolish and stupid, and does not understand the moral depth of our support base
๐Ÿ”ฅ119๐Ÿ‘Ž42๐Ÿซก27๐Ÿ‘5๐Ÿคฌ4๐Ÿ’”3
- The enemyโ€™s talk about transferring the weight to the north is varied after expanding the warโ€™s objectives to include returning its settlers to the north of occupied Palestine

- Can you return the displaced to the north? We accept this challenge and you cannot return them, do whatever you want

- The only way to return the displaced to the north is to stop the aggression on the Gaza Strip and the West Bank

- The foolish proposal of the commander of the northern region to establish a security belt, we hope they implement it and we consider it a historic opportunity that will have major effects on the battle

- What you are doing will increase the displacement of the displaced from the north and will remove the opportunity for their return

- Currently we are searching well and utilizing intelligence to find the tanks they are hiding, but when they come to us, they will be welcome and we will consider this threat a historic opportunity that we hope for
๐Ÿ‘118๐Ÿ‘Ž35๐Ÿซก24๐Ÿ”ฅ10๐Ÿคฌ1
- If the enemy establishes a security belt, it must know that it will turn into a trap, a mire, and an ambush, and it will face a difficult reckoning.

- We hope to maintain this positivity among the Lebanese people, away from the trivial people who want to distort this humanitarian scene.

- We hope that God will help our people in Gaza and the West Bank who are being subjected to genocide before the eyes of the world

- Netanyahu and Galantโ€™s foolish, narcissistic, reckless leadership will lead the occupying entity to a deep valley and the third destruction the Jewish Kingdom, using their terms

- There is no doubt that the aggression that took place is a major and unprecedented aggression and will be met with a severe reckoning and just retribution

- The enemy will be faced with a harsh reckoning and just retribution, whether it expects it or not.
