New reports suggest Israel orchestrated a complex operation involving the creation of shell companies to manufacture explosive pagers for Hezbollah. Contrary to earlier beliefs that Israel infiltrated the supply chain, it is now claimed that Israeli intelligence set up a front company, BAC Consulting, in Hungary to produce and rig pagers with explosives. The pagers, used by Hezbollah for secure communication, detonated across Lebanon on September 17-18, causing numerous casualties. This revelation marks a dramatic escalation in Israel-Hezbollah tensions, with Israel not officially claiming responsibility for the attacks.
