The blasts resulted in at least eight deaths and over 2,700 injuries, many of which were severe.The exact cause of the explosions remains unclear, but several theories have emerged. One possibility is that the pagers were tampered with during shipping, potentially containing small explosives that could be remotely activated or set to detonate via a timer[1][3]. Another theory suggests that overheating lithium batteries within the pagers led to the explosions; these batteries can catch fire and explode if they overheat[1][2][8]. Hezbollah officials have indicated that the devices were programmed to beep before exploding, hinting at a deliberate attack[1].Hezbollah has blamed Israel for the incident, alleging it was a "criminal aggression" and a significant security breach, as these pagers were intended to provide secure communication[2][5][6]. The situation has heightened tensions between Hezbollah and Israel amidst ongoing conflict in the region.Citations:[1] Lebanon attacks: Behind pager explosions across the country <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/explained/explained-global/lebanon-hezbollah-pagers-9573166/" target="_blank">https://indianexpress.com/article/explained/explained-global/lebanon-hezbollah-pagers-9573166/</a>[2] What are pagers?
