18.09.2024 โข The Day of Exploding Devices
โจReports emerged of Israel planting explosives in thousands of pagers used by Hezbollah, resulting in 12 deaths and thousands injured in Lebanon. The attack, allegedly executed by Mossad, was said to have been triggered prematurely due to fears of discovery. By afternoon, a second wave of explosions occurred, this time involving walkie-talkies and solar panels. The death toll rose to 20, with over 450 injured. Israel declared a "new phase of war" and moved troops northward. The international community expressed concern over civilian casualties and potential escalation. Hezbollah launched retaliatory rockets into Israel. The unprecedented nature of the attacks using everyday communication devices raised tensions in the region to levels not seen since the 1970s.
