‘Yes, Israel was responsible for the pager blast in Lebanon,’ Netanyahu admitted, 40 people died in the attack

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu admitted that he had given permission for pager attacks in Lebanon. In September, about 40 people were killed in pager blasts in Lebanon. More than 3 thousand members of the Iran-backed Hezbollah organization were injured. Israeli PM’s spokesperson Omar Doostari said, ‘Netanyahu confirmed on Sunday that he had given the green signal to the pager blast operation in Lebanon.’

The needle of suspicion was already on Israel

Thousands of pagers exploded in Hezbollah’s strongholds on 17 and 18 September. Iran and Hezbollah had already blamed Israel for this. Some Hezbollah members lost their fingers after the pager blasts. Some lost their eyesight. About 40 people were killed. Thousands of people were injured.

This is why pagers are used in Lebanon

Hezbollah then described the explosions in the pager as an Israeli breach in its communication network. Iran and Hezbollah fighters then vowed to avenge the attack. In Lebanon, pager devices are used by Hezbollah members as their means of communication to avoid Israeli location tracking.

Dozens killed in Israeli attack

On the other hand, dozens of people, including children, were killed in Israeli attacks in Lebanon and northern Gaza on Sunday. However, the eyes of the world were fixed on how the elections in America could affect the ongoing war against Iran-backed terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah?

Netanyahu spoke to Donald Trump

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he has spoken with Donald Trump three times since Tuesday’s election. Israeli President Isaac Herzog is scheduled to meet US President Joe Biden on Tuesday.
