Israel allegedly executed lethal pager attacks against Hezbollah in Lebanon

politics

In September 2024, Israel reportedly orchestrated orchestrated simultaneous explosive attacks on pagers and walkie-talkies used by Hezbollah, leading to over 3,000 injuries and at least 57 fatalities, including civilians. U.S. intelligence confirms Israel's involvement, although Israeli officials deny direct responsibility [4][12]. The tactic involved embedding explosives in pagers, exploiting Hezbollah's switch back to older communication devices due to tracking fears. Former CIA director Leon Panetta characterized the operation as a form of terrorism, raising discussions of international law violations [1][4][12]. The attacks have incited a cycle of retaliatory violence, with Hezbollah promising vengeance [6][9]. Concerns about the potential for escalation in regional conflicts are widespread, indicating broader implications for Middle Eastern stability [5][8].
