Used in the late 1990s and early 2000s, a pager was a small mobile device that could receive a short text message on an LCD screen. Apparently, these are easier to encrypt than a cellphone.
In Lebanon, they still use pagers, or at least some people in Hezbollah do. It’s useful for encrypted communication. Hezbollah had banned cellphones for official communications due to Israeli infiltration of their telecommunications systems.
Something that is happening right now, which we are just now learning about and no one has figured out yet: Israelis are somehow be causing these pagers to explode, and they are blowing holes in people.
Apparently.
There are a lot of videos of this being posted to Telegram. A lot.
(Some of these may be graphic and show blown up people.)
🇱🇧🔰💥📱Hezbollah has said this is
its largest intelligence breach in history. The Lebanese government has ordered civilians to throw away all pagers. Over 1000 casualties (many critical) have been reported. No deaths yet apparently. pic.twitter.com/hl2rCQ4ENf— World War Now (@WorldWarNow_) September 17, 2024
🏥🔰🇱🇧 WATCH: Hospitals across Lebanon are full of those missing hands, fingers, eyes, & other body parts in the aftermath of the pager/device attack. Over 1200 casualties have been reported.

(If Elon and his Jew Crew delete those, just go to Twitter and type “Lebanon Pagers.” They’re not going to be able to delete all of these videos people are uploading.)
After several hours of this happening, officials from Lebanon/Hezbollah and Iran began making statements about it and Reuters reported on it, so it is apparently not some kind of social media hoax.
At least three people were killed and more than 1,000 others including Hezbollah fighters, medics and Iran’s envoy to Beirut were wounded on Tuesday when the pagers they use to communicate exploded across Lebanon, security sources told Reuters.A Hezbollah official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the detonation of the pagers was the “biggest security breach” the group had been subjected to in nearly a year of conflict with Israel.
Israel and the Iran-backed Hezbollah have been engaged in cross-border warfare in parallel with the Gaza war which erupted last October, the worst such escalation in years.
The Israeli military declined to comment on Reuters enquiries about the detonations.
Hezbollah confirmed in a statement the deaths of at least three people, including two of its fighters. The third person killed was a girl, it said, adding that an investigation was being conducted into the causes of the blasts.
One of the fighters killed was the son of a Hezbollah member of the Lebanese parliament, two security sources told Reuters.
Iran’s ambassador to Lebanon, Mojtaba Amani, suffered a minor injury when a pager exploded, Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency reported.
I don’t know how this is even possible.
I am remembering the vape explosions from a few years ago, but these were different, much larger batteries (much more prone to exploding) and the vape devices were designed to allow the overcharging of the batteries. It’s totally unclear to me how the small battery in a pager could explode or how the device could even produce that much energy.
But reportedly, these are newer pages that are exploding. Presumably, they are using lithium-ion batteries, similar to the ones that exploded in vapes. I don’t know why people wouldn’t feel it getting hot beforehand, but maybe some of them did and others just didn’t notice (and even if they did notice, didn’t expect it to just outright explode like a bomb).
But that is apparently what is happening. It’s possible Israel distributed booby-trapped pagers. Or, more concerningly, they just figured out some way to make normal old Motorola pagers explode.
Snowden thinks it’s the former.
As information comes in about the exploding beepers in Lebanon, it seems now more likely than not to be implanted explosives, not a hack. Why? Too many consistent, very serious injuries. If it were overheated batteries exploding, you’d expect many more small fires & misfires.

Who knows what he knows, he’s not some kind of battery expert.
If Hezbollah bought a bunch of tainted pagers from the Jews, that is not a good look, so they’re probably going to claim it was a hack regardless. It’s unlikely we’ll get to the bottom of that.
The most obvious takeaway here is that if this can be done to pagers (if it is a hack and not boobytrapped pagers distributed by Jews), it can also be done to cellphones. It could be done to anyone’s cellphone, and apparently it can kill you or blow a chuck out of your body. Probably, this means that if you’re an enemy of Jews, or anyone that Jews might consider an enemy, you really should not be using a cellphone. Even if you keep it away from your body when you’re not using it, when you’re typing on it it could blow your fingers off.
We appear to have entered into a whole new era of bizarre warfare, where consumer electronics can be triggered to explode and kill you or seriously injure/deform you. It’s highly concerning.
The other obvious takeaway, which is much less weird but also worth mentioning, is that this is the sort of thing Israel would do before launching an invasion. The weirdness of “exploding pagers” is going to cause a lot of chaos in the country, and this is exactly when Israel would want to invade.
Addendum
So, what are the Jews saying about this?
The pagers are generally kept in their pockets.
This means Israel is literally blowing off Hezbollah testicles all across Lebanon today. Hundreds of them.
Well deserved.

Exactly what you would expect.
