- Dozens of members of the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah have been seriously wounded after pagers they use to communicate exploded, security officials say.
A Hezbollah official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Reuters news agency the detonation of the pagers was the "biggest security breach" the group has faced in nearly a year of war with Israel.

The Iranian ambassador has lost a few fingers! Why the hell was he carrying a pager?
exactly
To stay safe from hacking or tappimg of mobile phones
I mean Hezbollah is an Iranian proxy. No need to be surprised about that.
He is the investor, he needs to keep track of his minions...
Well, that’s what they say he lost fingers… he’s actually lost something else, but it’s not my point, the point is, the ambassador has always secretly wanted to change his sex but because the transgender surgery was not an option in the Islamic society he kept praying to Allah and Allah spoke upon him : get the pager, get the pager, so he did.. AlhamdullilaH
Hassan Yousef, Mosab 'Son of Hamas' said a few months ago "Hamas and Hezbollah try to hide in tunnels from Mossad ... Mossad will get them even if they hide on Mars!
Mosad didn't get the thousands that launched the attack on israel ! Unless they knew !
So why haven't they? Still fighting in a 9 sq mile area after a year.

Has there ever been a cyber attack like this?

Yea I remember a phone bomb
those pagers were purchased by hezbollah 3 months ago and most likely rigged from the source since many exploded in stores
not a cyber attack
Windows Vista or Crowdstrike!?!
Yes, Stuxnet was used against Iran, destroyed a whole bunch of centrifuges in a nuclear power plant.
What? I’m more surprised that there’s still pagers!?!?
Using them to limit tracking, can't hide from idf with smartphones....seems they can't hide from them with pagers either
Yorkshire terriers use them because they can't be tracked, they can only receive messages.
I think that their leader instructed them to switch from mobile phones to pagers, because he thought that their mobile phones messages are intercepted
I almost googled pagers because my brain couldn’t compute they were what I thought they were 😂
@@1Kapachow1 Probably a Mossad agent convinced him that Israel was monitoring their comms, told him pagers could get around the monitoring and sold them the pagers with embedded explosives.

why did the ambassador have one ?
Because he is part of them, pretending to be neutral, so that UN can pressure Israel to to not attack them.
Very good question!
They are a proxy of Iran. It's logical that he would have one to be informed of operations taking place or success/failures of operations.

This is probably the most obvious example of why self-driving cars are dangerous. Because one hacked car is hundreds of times more dangerous than a pager.
Beware of your phone and its lithium battery.
These pagers were not hacked. They were built this way and distributed.

Hey, no pointing finger(s)...
Why does the Title say just 'dozens injured' but then 30 seconds in it says 'hundreds injured' and then 1 minute in a reporter says 'thousands reported injured' ??

oooooo That was SNEAKY!!!
8 were neutralized at the time of this comment
And thousands of bystanders were injured, cowardly war crime!

If pagers can be detonated by hacking how safe are our phones?

Hacking can't make thousands of pagers explode.
Something was planted inside them 😉
Pagers? I knew they were backward but pagers?!
Low tech less likely to be hacked but not safe it seems.
Poorer countries and people involved with less than legal activities still use pages today, pages, old type phones and vintage internet are used by these people, they are harder to track and harder to bug.
Backward?? In the region that invented medicine, mathematics, irrigation.... I could go on but I don't think it would change your jaded mind!

Exactly and how utterly disgusting that the most far right Genocidal government has the technology to do this. I'm disgusted.
The pagers sent a message that said Alahu snackbar before exploding.
Pagers???? And they think they can match Israel’s military 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
no it was deliberate to use pagers. mobile phones can be easily hacked.
well good for voiding digital handshakes and usually the messages get through, highly reliable. At (probably) 900Mhz, signals might not even be suppressed by these "new-fangled" mobile jammers.
what are pagers ?? 🤔
Devices that communicate short messages, and alerts through radio signal/waves.
Before phones could send texts. People used pagers to send messages. Early - late 90s technology.
Pagers ?
The last time I saw a pager was in 1999 -2001
Poorer countries and people involved with less than legal activities still use pages today, pages, old type phones and vintage internet are used by these people, they are harder to track and harder to bug.
This is insane. No way they contained explosives , so signals have been sent to the phones which have caused the batteries to overheat and explode…?
That sounds reasonable. If a message has been sent to batteries just think what else has batteries - motor vehicles, batteries backing up renewable energies, trains, traffic lights etc. .
@@JUDITHBEARD-v3f Yeah I’m starting to disbelieve the idea that it was just batteries.
