The incident.
Hezbollah, a militant group, uses pagers to communicate. Recently, in Lebanon and Syria, these pagers suddenly exploded! It hurt many people, and nine people died.
Hezbollah thinks Israel did it, but Israel hasn’t said anything. But, an American official said Israel told them about it later. Also, Israel and Hezbollah are enemies.
After the pagers, walkie-talkies, and solar gadgets also exploded in Lebanon, causing more injuries. Reports say it is the second wave of attacks against the militants.
How was the explosion done?
Hezbollah uses pagers because they’re harder to track than phones. Reports say Israel put tiny bombs inside the pagers months before the terrorist organisation received them. They hid a special board with explosives that could blow up with a secret code.
The tricky part? Even scanners couldn’t find the bombs! The pagers got normal messages, but boom—they were actually codes that made them explode! Also, details about the second wave of attacks have yet to emerge.
About Hezbollah.
Hezbollah was started by Iran's Revolutionary Guards in 1982 during a civil war in Lebanon to fight Israeli forces in Lebanon and share their Islamic Revolution ideas.
Over time, Hezbollah grew and now works in Lebanon and nearby places. Many countries call them a terrorist group. The group gets a lot of help from Iran.
When the Gaza war started, Hezbollah said they supported Palestine and began attacking Israel. This isn’t their first fight with Israel; they’ve been fighting for years. Now, Hezbollah has promised to get back at Israel for the latest attacks.
