The September 17, 2024 pager attack on Hizbullah, in which thousands of devices belonging to the organization’s operatives exploded simultaneously, killing about ten operatives and wounding some 4,000, sparked many reactions from Arab users on X. Most of the posts mocked Hizbullah and expressed satisfaction at its misfortune, along with wonder at the sophistication of the Israel-attributed operation. Other posts expressed anger at Hizbullah supporters who called to avoid sharing videos of people wounded in the attack, and at Hizbullah and its supporters for expecting sympathy and solidarity from the Arab world. Hizbullah’s operatives, they said, are murderers and criminals responsible for the death of many Arabs and for the destruction of Lebanon, so they should not expect sympathy.

Additional Hezbollah devices explode across Lebanon

This comes after thousands of Hezbollah members were wounded on Tuesday after the pagers they used to communicate detonated

Lebanese media reported that at least 500 people were wounded on Wednesday as another round of explosions rang out throughout the country at midday.

Axios started to report significant details about Israel’s involvement in the attack, while The Jerusalem Post (which also has extensive Western sources) has also been able to independently confirm large aspects of details related to the attack.

Nine people had been killed, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry.

According to Reuters, citing a Lebanese security official, those wounded sustained wounds primarily to the stomach and hands.

The Lebanese Health Ministry issued a statement earlier saying 14 people were killed, and over 450 were wounded.

The Lebanese Civil Defense later stated it was operating to extinguish the fires that had broken out following the explosions in some 60 shops and homes, 15 vehicles, motorcycles, and two fingerprint devices. It added that ambulances were transferring the wounded to hospitals throughout the country.

Par for the course the UN is condemning Israel citing a fear of escalation. Escalation! What does the UN call 11,000 missiles fired into mostly civilian areas of Israel, de-escalation? It’s called reaping the whirlwind.
