At least nine  people were killed and over 28,000 were injured after thousands of members of the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah, including fighters and medics, came under massive attack on Tuesday. According to the Lebanese Health Ministry, all were injured after the pagers they used to communicate exploded. Multiple media reported that the thousands of pagers exploded after receiving a "cryptic message". If the claims were true, it would be the most advanced warfare against the Hezbollah group. There was no immediate comment from the Israeli military about the detonations.

A Hezbollah official, speaking on condition of



anonymity, said the detonation of the pagers was the "biggest security breach" the group had been subjected to in nearly a year of war with Israel. The explosions took place amid heightened violence between Israel and Hezbollah, who have been engaged in cross-border warfare since the Gaza war erupted last October in the worst such escalation in years.

A Reuters journalist saw ambulances rushing through the southern suburbs of the capital Beirut amid widespread panic. Residents said explosions were taking place even 30 minutes after the initial blasts. The security source added that devices were also exploding in the south of Lebanon.
