It's never been obvious that Israel can violence their way out of this situation. But as violent tactics go, this was a good one.

Any word on the scope of the walkie talkies?

I believe they were another nine killed with about 300 injuries

That comports with what I've read.

Yeah, that one was my favorite, too.

Oh man I feel bad laughing at all of these. I agree with @Klaus but it's hard not to respect the targeted/creative approach here against an enemy that has a much worse human rights record.

The effect is much bigger than that. If I’m a hezbollah agent, I don’t even want to touch a telegraph right now. Communications are completely screwed, and Luxembourg has positive confirmation on over 2000 Hezbollah agents, and most likely those that are in some level of authority, even just “platoon” leaders.

Wonder when hunting season starts?

[Mik]

I think it already has.

[Copper]

With all the terrorists sneaking across our borders, there must be some exploding devices here.

[Tom-K]

Third day of explosions. This time exploding goats!

“Operation Grim Beeper”

[taiwan_girl]

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-19/walkie-talkies-in-lebanon-blasts-were-made-at-least-a-decade-ago

Japan’s Icom Inc., whose brand appears on walkie-talkies that exploded in Lebanon, said it halted production a decade ago of the model allegedly used in the attacks and is still investigating the situation.

Icom exported its IC-V82 two-way radio to regions including the Middle East until October 2014, when it stopped making and selling the devices, the Osaka-based company said in a statement Thursday. It has also discontinued production of the batteries needed to operate the main unit, it said. The company earlier had warned customers that almost all IC-V82s on the market are counterfeit.

Also, the president of the Taiwan pager company was interviewed by Taiwan authorities. And trying to find the link to a company called BAC in Hungary.
