by COLlive Editor · COLliveLebanese media reported another round of explosions throughout the country midday on Wednesday, Jerusalem Post reported.
Hand-held radios used by Hezbollah detonated late on Wednesday afternoon across Lebanon’s south and in Beirut’s southern suburbs, a security source and a witness said, a day after similar explosions launched via the group’s pagers.
If true, this would be the second consecutive day of potential sabotage and explosions in Lebanon after around 3,000 mostly members of Hezbollah were wounded by exploding beepers on Tuesday.
The hand-held radios were purchased by Hezbollah five months ago, around the same time that the pagers were bought, said a security source, Reuters reported.
According to the reports, the explosions occurred at and in parallel to the funeral of four Hezbollah members in Lebanon.
Unofficial reports claimed that iPhones, video cameras, and other devices also detonated.
According to unconfirmed reports, Hezbollah has told its operatives to distance itself from communication devices.
