Dozens of wireless communication devices, including pagers and walkie-talkies, used by the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) in Aleppo have reportedly exploded, resulting in significant casualties. Initial reports suggested multiple devices malfunctioned, but later clarifications indicated that it might have been a single device malfunction. The incident coincides with the movement of HTS-led armed groups towards western Aleppo, raising questions about potential involvement by external parties, with some unconfirmed reports suggesting Israel's involvement.
