Headline: Pagers explode across Lebanon

Caption: An undated file catalog image of an Apollo pager, similar to the ones that exploded on September 17, 2024, in various cities of Lebanon and Syria, in an unprecedented cyber-attack or long distance attack against pro Iranian Hezbollah personnel. At least nine people have been killed and thousands are injured after handheld pagers, used by Hezbollah, exploded in Lebanon on Tuesday afternoon. The health ministry says 200 of those injured are in a critical condition. Hezbollah has blamed Israel for the "sinful aggression", saying the country will get its "fair punishment".
