Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed approving a pager-based attack on Hezbollah in Lebanon, which killed nearly 40 and injured around 3,000 people. The attack occurred in September, with explosions triggered remotely through booby-trapped pagers and walkie-talkies used by Hezbollah members. This is Netanyahu’s first public acknowledgment of Israel's involvement. Lebanon filed a complaint against Israel with the United Nations, condemning the use of such methods in warfare. Lebanese officials expressed concerns about the dangerous precedent of turning ordinary devices into lethal tools. Hezbollah has since increased its strikes on Israel, escalating regional tensions.
