First pagers, now walkie-talkies: What's behind targeting of Hezbollah devices?
Edité par France 24 - 2024
We will see how Lebanon’s digesting its worst casualty toll since the August 2021 port of Beirut explosion, the options available to Hezbollah and its Iranian backers – Tehran's ambassador to Lebanon among the injured and how the timing impacts what’s already a conflict on two fronts.
For now, Israel is tight-lipped. It does not have to claim responsibility for the kind of derring-do operation that is normally the reserve of a John Le Carré novel or a James Bond movie, but does technical prowess imply political smarts? Time will tell.
Produced by Alessandro Xenos, Rebecca Gnignati and Ilayda Habip.
- Note
A precision operation that’s part of a grander scheme or a one-off magic trick to score spy ops points against the enemy? Either way, what to make of a second day of exploding devices that has killed a dozen and wounded more than 3-thousand? Hezbollah's response awaited after a security breach that will go down in the history books: how did those recently-equipped pagers explode? Why the aftershock of exploding walkie-talkies in several regions. We will examine possible scenarios in this edition of The Debate.
