LIVE | Pager Bomb Attack: Israel Targets Hezbollah in Lebanon | Vantage with Palki Sharma
The West Asia crisis continues to deepen after thousands were injured across Lebanon and Syria in a coordinated attack targeting Hezbollah, the Iran-backed militant group. The attack, which Israel has not officially claimed responsibility for, involved detonating pagers rigged with explosives that had been distributed to Hezbollah fighters and civilians alike. Hezbollah has accused Israel of carrying out the "criminal attack" and vowed retaliation. At least 12 people are confirmed dead, including the son of a Hezbollah lawmaker. Lebanese hospitals are overwhelmed with hundreds of injured, including the Iranian envoy to Beirut. Details of the operation remain unclear, but reports suggest it was planned months ago, around the time of the Gaza conflict. Hezbollah, concerned about Israeli spying, had decided to replace cell phones with pagers, believing them to be less vulnerable. This plan clearly backfired as Israel managed to embed explosives within the devices.
What could be Israel's objective behind this covert operation? How will Lebanon retaliate to this large-scale attack? On Vantage tonight, Palki Sharma tells you more.
