Approximately 1,200 members of the Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah were seriously wounded on Tuesday in Lebanon's south and the southern suburbs of Beirut when the pagers they use to communicate exploded, security sources told Reuters.
A Reuters journalist saw Hezbollah members bleeding from wounds in the southern suburb of Beirut known as Dahiyeh.
A senior Lebanese security source told Al-Hadath that Israel infiltrated the communication system of individual devices and detonated them.
An Al-Jazeera security source confirmed that communication devices carried by Hezbollah operatives exploded in several areas across Lebanon, not only in Beirut but also in Beqaa and southern Lebanon. Another Lebanese security source claimed that Israel hacked into Hezbollah's radio communication system and caused the explosions.
According to Al-Hadath, the IDF remotely detonated the communication devices using advanced technology. However, Israel has not taken responsibility for the explosions.
