Walkie talkies used by Hezbollah fighters have detonated across Lebanon, wounding at least ten Hezbollah fighters, witnesses and security sources have reported.
It comes a day after thousands of exploding pagers used by the group left almost 3,000 people injured and a dozen dead, including civilians and children.
Hand-held radios were purchased by Hezbollah five months ago, at around the same time as the compromised pagers, a security source has now revealed.Â
The latest explosions this afternoon have hit the country’s south and the southern suburbs of the capital Beirut, a security source and a witness said.
At least one of the blasts heard took place near a funeral organized by Hezbollah for those killed the previous day.
This is a breaking news story, more to follow.Â
