Pagers explode simultaneously in hundreds of Hezbollah members' pockets
Briefly

The attack in Lebanon, which reportedly involved the simultaneous detonation of pagers belonging to Hezbollah members, left eight dead and over 2,700 injured, raising concerns over security and device safety.
Health Minister of Lebanon stated that among the over 2,700 injured, 200 were in critical condition, highlighting the severity of the attack and the range of injuries sustained by victims.
Witnesses detailed the chaotic scene that followed the explosions, noting that many victims were left wounded with facial injuries, prompting fears of further retaliatory actions from both sides.
