Exploding pagers injure hundreds in attack targeting Hezbollah members, Lebanese security source says


Hundreds of people were injured Tuesday in an attack targeting the pagers of Hezbollah members, a Lebanese security source told CNN.

Iran’s Ambassador to Lebanon, Mojtaba Amani, was among those injured in Beirut, according to semi-official Iranian media outlet Mehr News. NNA reported that “hacked” pager devices exploded in the towns of Ali Al-Nahri and Riyaq in Lebanon’s central Beqaa valley, resulting in a significant number of injuries. Social media video from inside a Lebanese hospital meanwhile showed large numbers of injured people, including at least one child.
