When I saw this on the news, the first thing I thought was #Israel. Any country who has no problems unleashing #Stuxnet (with help from the #CIA), and bombing #HumanitarianAidWorkers and civilians has no problems with making pagers blow up, injuring innocents and children!

"A Hezbollah official cited by the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) said that hundreds of [Hezbollah] members had such #pager devices, and speculated that #malware could have caused the device to heat up and explode. The same official cited by the WSJ reported that some people felt the pagers heat up, disposing of them before they exploded."
#Iranian ambassador #MojtabaAmani was reportedly injured in the explosion, according to state-owned Mehr News.
"Hezbollah said that the detonations of pagers used by the group killed two of its fighters and one girl, without directly accusing Israel of being behind the operation.
"It said that it was carrying out an investigation to determine the causes of the blasts."
