Iran's Ambassador to Lebanon Injured in Exploding Pager Plot Involving Hezbollah, Israel: Washington Post
Oct 6, 2024, 02:20 AM
Iran's ambassador to Lebanon, Mojtaba Amani, was injured in an explosion involving Hezbollah members. The explosion was caused by an exploding pager, part of a plot that started two years earlier. The pagers were designed and built in Israel and paid for by Hezbollah. A woman, formerly a marketing official for Apollo, became trusted by Hezbollah and offered them a deal on the pagers. The pagers were extra thick, rugged for battlefield use, and had an extra battery to last months. They required pressing two buttons simultaneously for encryption, making it likely the user would lose both hands in an explosion. Hezbollah paid millions of dollars for these pagers, which were sold by Mossad's shell company. The Washington Post reported on the details of the exploding pagers plot.
