Israeli Sources are claiming that Hezbollah Secretary-General, Hassan Nasrallah was either Injured or Killed in the Strike on the Dahieh Suburb of Beirut.

Killing Nasrallah would be a major step toward peace in the Middle East.

Looking like the IDF have managed to upload the entire Hezbollah's leadership onto the cloud!

I know I'm more than a week late on this--the exploding pagers.

I went back and read all the related posts.

Why were they carrying pagers? Pagers? Who carries pagers these days except doctors?

people targeted by previously carrying cell-phones with location revealing software. Same reason UBL stopped using cellphones; it became obvious they were being targeted using them so they had to switch tradecraft.

Makes me wonder - was this by a drone, guided/smart munition or an explosive already in the car; just triggered/detonated? What did they load into the car?

Ok, thanks, that makes sense about the cell phones but I'm still out of the loop and dating myself here. I'm guessing these pagers are to send messages, like text messages, and not merely phone numbers like in the old days?

It's been a long while since I've used a pager, but I think they will only receive.

Nah, these ones gave, too.

(More seriously, two-way pagers were a thing at the end of the Pager Era.)

The pagers in question (if they are indeed the Motorolas that I've seen pictures of) are capable of alphanumeric messaging and are one way only. I have the same one for work.

Not Motorola's. Motorola exited that business long ago and sold to a company in Taiwan. Golden something.

What appears to have happened is that Israel or more specifically Mossad set up a shell company many years ago and negotiated a distribution agreement with the OEM in Taiwan. Call this "supply chain injection" or more specifically, controlling the supply chain.

Unconfirmed:

https://x.com/Eli_YAHU_07/status/1839734819560837378





But, this appears to be confirmed:

Zainab Nasrallah, daughter of Hezbollah leader, reportedly killed in Beirut strike

They wanted killing, and killing they got.

WSJ headline:

Israel Says It Killed Hezbollah Leader Hassan Nasrallah in Massive Beirut Airstrike

The Israeli’s understand that cutting the head off a snake tends to neutralize the body.

Sadly, not a lesson learned here (excepting President Reagan!); the Ayatollahs released the American hostage moment’s after his election! They did not relish the idea of Tehran being a radioactive glassine pit.
