Israel blew up thousands of two-way personal radios used by Hezbollah members in Lebanon in a second wave of an intelligence operation that started on Tuesday with the explosions of pager devices, two sources with knowledge of the operation told Axios. [snip] The Walkie Talkies were booby-trapped in advance by Israeli intelligence services and then delivered to Hezbollah as part of the militia's emergency communications system, which was supposed to be used during a war with Israel, the sources said.

I think if I was one of them, I'd be seriously considering retiring from the terrorist business about now.
What next? Doctored ammo for their guns? Replace the gunpowder with something really brisant?

Not to go off topic but a friend of mine made a small fortune making and selling wristwatches to Muslims that told the when it was time to pray. Smart Muzzies need to get rid of their smart devices from coffee makers to smart phones, pagers and watches. If I were a Muzzie I wouldn't even trust camels. Something could be in those humps.

Just found out what the message was:
We'd like to talk to you about your pager's extended warranty.

Ya gotta love the technology.
The Jews over at the Technion spent years ( it was founded in 1923 ) innovating, inventing and discovering in science medicine and technology and agriculture , the muslims neighbors spent their time screaming death to Americ and death to Israel and burning flags.

Now they know who the hezbolla members are. Obtain their identifying information from the hospitals where they were treated. Plus the explosion scars will stand out. Rounding them up will be easy.

Over in Gaza, I'm sure that Sinwar isn't answering his own cell phone anymore and has someone else check under the toilet seat before he does his daily sit down.

Obviously, the Israeli's have been monitoring their communications for years. Israel must be thinking that is no longer necessary, as the IDF has massed along the Lebanese border, and intends to invade. This sickens Biden and Blinken, the most incompetent morons ever to hold any office, and who cannot be fired soon enough.

Israel has the Iranians on the run...now they are afraid to use their phones and laptops....to communicate with the terrorists....it was a genius plan...and I don't think Mossad is done...I wondered why suddenly Israel was relocating the displaced citizens back to their homes...and now WE know...they are confident that hezzbola will think twice before ordering more bombings...

I think the Hezbollah IT guy will be looking for a new job tomorrow, assuming he still has a head on him

Must be frustrating to finally meet your 72 virgins, and you have no balls, because they were blown off

We are seeing the dramatic videos from cities. What we are NOT seeing is footage of exploding hezbollah commanders out in the field where the missile launcher sites are. Israel took out hezbollah's entire command structure with the push of a button. And in case any commanders avoided the first hit on the pagers, they then did it again on the walkie talkies. Hezbollah should at the moment be effectively paralyzed. Impressive.

No animals or IDF soldiers were hurt in this production. The CIA could use this education.

Now they're all "marked" as a Hezbollah member for one and all to see.
