Lebanon rocks : Blasts in walkie-talkies after pager explosion, 9 killed, 300 injured

Dubai (Team Newsbuddy): After the blast in the pager of Hezbollah fighters in Lebanon, there is news of another blast on Wednesday. According to media reports, 9 people are reported to have died in the blast. This time the blast was in a wireless communication device walkie-talkie. According to Associated Press journalists present at the scene, several explosions took place on Wednesday at the funeral site of three Hezbollah members and a child, who died in a pager explosion a day earlier.

The Lebanese Health Ministry said that at least 9 people were killed and 300 injured in the blasts in several walkie-talkies. According to media reports, Hezbollah has fired missiles targeting areas of northern Israel

Hezbollah’s Al Manar TV reported explosions in several areas of Lebanon. A Hezbollah official told the Associated Press that explosions were heard in Beirut after a walkie-talkie exploded. The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said no immediate details were given about the casualties.

The new explosions from walkie-talkies have come at a time when people in Lebanon have not yet recovered from the pager bomb explosions on Tuesday. It is being said that Israel attacked by targeting Hezbollah members. At least 12 people, including two children, were killed in the explosions of hundreds of pagers used by Hezbollah members in many parts of Lebanon and Syria. About 2,800 people were injured in this blast.

At the same time, Israel has not commented on the pager and walkie-talkie explosions in Lebanon. This has again given rise to a new apprehension that the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah could turn into a major war. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Wednesday that the US was still assessing how the attack could affect efforts to negotiate a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.

Israel began sending more troops to its border with Lebanon on Wednesday as a precautionary measure, according to an official who spoke to the media on condition of anonymity. There has been firing between Hezbollah and the Israeli army almost every day since October 8
