Three people have been killed in Lebanon’s Bekaa region in the east of the country in the latest device blasts, the state news agency has reported, a day after thousands of pagers used by Hezbollah detonated across the country.
Multiple explosions have been reported across Lebanon on Wednesday, with Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency reporting that pagers and “devices” have exploded in Hezbollah strongholds in the east and south of Beirut.
Hezbollah’s Al Manar TV reported explosions in multiple areas of Lebanon, which it said were the result of walkie-talkies detonating.
On Tuesday, pagers used by Hazbollah, exploded nearly simultaneously in Lebanon, killing at least 12 people, including two children, and wounding around 2,800.
Hezbollah and the Lebanese government blamed Israel. Israel did not comment on the attacks.
