At least eight people were killed and more than 2,700 injured, many of them Lebanon-based Hezbollah fighters, when the handheld pagers they use to communicate exploded, Lebanon's health minister said Tuesday.

Firass Abiad said the blasts took place in several suburbs of Beirut, according to Lebanon's National News Agency. Abiad said in a news conference that many of the victims had injuries to their faces, hands and stomachs.

He said one of those killed was an 8-year-old girl.

The direct cause of the explosions was not immediately clear, though Hezbollah quickly blamed Israel for what it called its "sinful aggression." It said it Israel would get "its fair punishment."

A Hezbollah official told the Reuters news agency that the detonation of the pagers was the "biggest security breach" the group had been subjected to in nearly a year of war with Israel.

Mojtaba Amani, Iran's ambassador in Lebanon, was also injured in the incident, though not seriously, according to Iran's semi-official Mehr News Agency. Hezbollah is materially and financially backed by Iran.

There was no immediate comment from Israel's Defense Forces.

The incident comes just hours after Israel's security cabinet released a statement vowing to return residents of Israel's northern areas to their homes. Hezbollah, long Israel's enemy, has repeatedly fired missiles at Israeli territory since Hamas' Oct. 7 attacks, causing many residents to flee south.

A pager is a small electronic device that can be worn or fit in a pocket that beeps or vibrates when someone is trying to contact you. It displays the phone number or sometimes a short message. Pagers can usually only receive information, not transmit it, making their location hard to track.

Israel has for months warned that it could launch a military operation to drive Hezbollah away from its border.


OK, seems like Israel did this, but how?

I remember several cases where Israelis inserted explosives into cellphones and even payphones so they could be blown up on demand remotely, and killed Palestinian terrorists that way.

"It could have been pulled off by Israeli Mista‘arvim operatives, guised as mercantile Hezbollah die-hards who acted as intermediaries. Massive discounts and kickbacks, interspersed with de rigueur appeals to jihad, would have sweetened the deal. There are many possibilities here. Never trust die-hard fanatics, particularly jihadi types, as they almost always end up working for the other side, sometimes unknowingly. "

Zionist derangement syndrome, preceded by Ukie derangement syndrome, preceded by Trump derangement syndrome.

It is a pandemic of monumental mental health disorders and they are spreading even here on Patnet. That’s why I always garb up before I login so the cooties don’t get me.

Just remember it was the TDS crew that gave us a senile president who allowed both of these wars to start and drag on. Oh and he “ended” Afghanistan on a good note too by giving so many nice toys to the Taliban and Chinese (sarcasm). Fuck anyone who supports these wars.

Apparently American University hospital in Beirut, Lebanon updated their pagers a few weeks ago for some reason…

Paging System Go Live
Dear AUBMC Community,
As we upgrade our paging system to a new updated version with better
coverage, we are officially decommissioning the old paging system. The
go live date is August 29 at 8:30 AM.
The new paging system will be restricted to emergency code teams,
ensuring improved reliability and focused communication during critical
situations. Please note that the code activation process will remain
centralized in the Call Center.
As communicated previously, Webex will replace old personal pagers as the
messaging tool for regular communication. For users who are currently on a
code team, please keep your personal pagers with you. We will switch
these with new pagers on the go-live date. For users not on the code team,
please return your personal pagers to the IT service desk located on the
2nd floor of the MAB building. This will help us ensure a smooth transition.
Attached is a detailed guide on how to install and configure Webex on your
computers or mobile devices for messaging only.
Should you have any questions or need assistance, please do not hesitate
to contact
Mr. Ahmad El Kaaki at 7794 or
Wafaa Abi Orm at 5011.
Thank you for your cooperation as we transition to a more efficient and
modern communication system.
Thank you.
Ahmad Kaaki
Senior HIS Applications Manager
