Israel carried out its operation against Hezbollah on Tuesday by hiding explosive material within a new batch of Taiwanese-made pagers imported into Lebanon, according to American and other officials briefed on the operation.
The pagers, which Hezbollah had ordered from Gold Apollo in Taiwan, had been tampered with before they reached Lebanon, according to some of the officials. Most were the company’s AP924 model, though three other Gold Apollo models were also included in the shipment.
The explosive material, as little as one to two ounces, was implanted next to the battery in each pager, two of the officials said. A switch was also embedded that could be triggered remotely to detonate the explosives.
Is this universal around all of Lebanon or only the hospital you were at? There were reports claiming medical personnel were hit with the pagers.
Did OP mean in Lebanon when they said that doctors in 2024 were the foremost use of pagers?
Since they asked which country I was talking about, I think they just meant it in general.
