Lebanon’s Disaster Risk Management Unit has announced that 1,873 people have been killed and 9,134 wounded as a result of Israeli attacks in the country since October 8 last year.
“The number of displaced persons from areas exposed to Israeli aggression has exceeded one million, including 155,600 registered in shelters,” it said in its report.
Initial investigations carried out by Hezbollah on pagers that did not explode suggest that Israel placed 1 to 3 grammes (0.04 to 0.11oz) of pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), a powerful explosive, in each device.
In addition, metal balls were placed around the pager batteries, allowing the explosive force to propel metal fragments outward, significantly increasing the lethality of the blast.
