Seems unlikely considering only pagers belonging to Hezbollah had the explosives added.
Comment on Who still uses pagers?

Multiple news articles are saying this was a production level attack, on devices that were specifically ordered by Hesbollah.

It’s been widely reported, here’s a reuters source.

There isn’t one, because this is objectively not true.

Those devices were bought by Hesbollah, for their soldiers to use, and were connected to a network they operate.
From what I understand about the attack, even if one of these devices made it’s way into the hands of a doctor, it would have to be connected to the Hesbollah network to detonate.

Multiple electronics stores caught on fire. I doubt Mossad found a specific box that said “To: terrorists” on it and only rigged those pagers. They just don’t care about killing civilians.
Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 4 months ago
My understanding of this is those pagers and the network they were connected to were only for use by Hesbollah.

Yet they killed children and were in mobile phone stores.

Not just their soldiers, civilian members of the organisation were also using them.

Bold of you to call them soldiers. For the Israel state or, I hope, government, they are all active/inactive terrorists. Yeah, 10 year olds, too.
Ilandar@aussie.zone 4 months ago
I called them soldiers because that is the terminology the person I was replying to used.

They (Israeli government) have murdered thousands of innocent men, women and children already without any remorse. Destroyed the entirety of Gaza.
What makes you think the Israeli government has any heart, sympathy or feelings at all?

Its crazy how all those zero years old terrorists were operating. All in their cribs and their parent’s arms and shit. Absolutely despicable. Glad theres a list 14 pages long of just zero years old terrorists.

What kinds of “heroes” and “freedom fighters” hide in schools and hospitals and use innocent people as human shields?
ShepherdPie@midwest.social 4 months ago
Bruh, you’re literally defending a country who just made a bunch of people unwitting suicide bombers in a foreign country and injured thousands for political purposes. This is terrorism

Your name and comment just screams ‘’troll’’ but for the sake of it, I will respond and then block you since you got nothing good to comment anyway.
Your particular comment claims that all Palestinian lives are terrorists which is immensely wrong and a Zionistic view. Secondly, what do you consider a terrorist? Because if we look how Israel as a state was made and what atrocities they’ve done since 1948 up until 2024 (ongoing). We could very well consider Israel a terroristic state.
Now about the pagers that have been purposefully exploded by the Israeli state (government). It’s widely known that also innocent people (non-Hezbollah) have been wounded and murdered because of Israel’s terroristic action;
If you want to kill one another, go ahead. But what Israel (government) has done is (once again) a terroristic action. They murdered innocent people along the way without remorse. The pagers went off in cars, shops and such.
I will block you now, MY_ANUS_IS_BLEEDING@lemm.ee, since you are definitely not the kind of human I would want to interact with on the internet.
