More Explosive Devices Detonate in Lebanon After Pager Blast

Bùi Đức |

Several electronic devices exploded simultaneously in the capital Beirut and many other areas of Lebanon, killing at least 9 people and injuring 300 others.

According to AP, walkie-talkies and many solar-powered devices exploded at the same time in the capital Beirut and neighboring areas in Lebanon on September 18.

Hezbollah officials said this was the second attack targeting electronic devices used by Hezbollah troops.

According to statistics from the Lebanese Ministry of Health, the attack took the lives of about nine people and injured 300 others.

The day before, several messaging devices had also exploded, leaving behind a huge number of casualties. As of now, the death toll has risen to 12, including three Hezbollah fighters and two children, and the number of injured has also risen to 2,800.

According to an AP reporter's report on the series of explosions on September 18 (local time), many explosions were heard in Beirut - where the funeral was being held for three Hezbollah fighters and a little girl who died in the pager explosion that took place the day before.

They also saw a car and a phone shop in the southern city of Siden (Lebanon) severely damaged after devices inside exploded.

A solar power system exploded in southern Lebanon, injuring a young girl nearby, Lebanon's national news agency said.

This second series of explosions also raises concerns that explosions can happen anywhere, in homes, cars and even convenience stores. The explosions can easily injure people nearby.

Although the pagers were used by Hezbollah members, there is no guarantee that they were the ones holding them when they exploded. Among those killed on September 17 were two medical workers.

It is still unclear who was behind the attack, but Hezbollah has repeatedly said Israel was responsible. Hezbollah believes it was a war crime.

Volker Türk, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, called for a further investigation into the series of explosions to ensure that everyone can live in safety and peace.
