A reporter’s account of the day the pagers exploded in Lebanon

The Association for Defending Victims of Terrorism - Hussein Pak, a reporter present in Lebanon, narrates the incident of the pagers explosion.

 

He said in this regard, one of my friends called me and told me that your friend was injured. I did not ask who or what the injured person was because my friend was resting at home or in his office and was not a soldier, and this was strange to me. When I arrived at the scene of the incident, I saw that my friend’s left eye had completely fallen out and two of his fingers had been cut off. This means that exactly what they had done was to send a message to the pager to tell people to hold it in front of them and it would explode, and this has many strange complications.

He continued, for example, the pager line was small. I spoke to several people who were using these pagers and they said that they brought the pager close to their faces to find out which message they had received, and these people were encouraged to pick up the pager by several messages that were sent in succession. It is not rational for everyone to be involved in this issue at the same level. After I put my friend in the car, I drove to Rasool Al-Azm Hospital. When I reached the gas station in front of Al-Saha Hotel, I saw a woman who was injured like my friend. I did not know that the pager had exploded in the meantime. When I entered the boulevard, I saw several hospital security forces standing in front of the hospital with guns so that no one could enter. There I realized that an attack had taken place. I went and talked to them and they allowed us to enter the hospital. When we entered, hundreds of people like my friend were lying in the hospital corridor, so that there was no room for my friend. The strangest scene was the nurses crying.

The pager explosion in Lebanon, which was planned by the Zionist regime, killed dozens of people, including children and women. Many international law experts have classified this action by the Zionist regime as the use of civilian means in carrying out military attacks against civilian targets and as a war crime.
