Other posters have said it all. It's like something from a film. It's real people being devastatingly injured. A bleep sounded first so they'd all be getting them out and looking at them. What sick mind came up with this then happily manufactured and supplied them?! Bad times.

Indeed, while it is like something out of a spy film, at the end of the day, it will be the innocents who will end up paying the price for the repercussions which will follow.

The Taiwanese producers claim that the pagers were made in Hungary. Either way it is a very worrying turn of events. I would think that Israel has enough to be going on with at the moment without inciting Hezbollah. I suppose this will bring more death and destruction on the poor civilians caught up in the aftermath in Lebanon.

It’s very clever. Not only does it knock out Hezbollah’s communications but it identifies them.

9 dead (so far) up to 3,000 Hezbollah operatives injured across Lebanon and Syria.

Apparently the pagers were manufactured in TaiWan and packed with explosives. The Taiwanese producers are vehemently denying this.

Israeli Government is being rather quiet, no statement so far. Hezbollah have said that there will be serious repercussions

It is like a plot from a Johnny English film…
