Last post by Tripoli - Today at 01:32:51 PMQuote from: Jarhead0331 on Today at 12:59:53 PM^The psychological impact of this operation will cause far more damage than the kinetic element. Therein lies its brilliance.Absolutely. +2000 operatives have been killed or wounded, and the C3I network severely damaged. With this level of compromise, Hezbollah must be worried about whether other communications networks/methods are compromised. At this point, anything that doesnt' explode will be viewed with suspicion that it has been tapped. And they will be individually petrified of the possibility that Israel has more in store for them. Their OODA loop just got very big.

Last post by Tripoli - Today at 12:16:47 PMThere seems to be some support for the report that radios are now exploding. This film was allegedly shot at the funeral of one of the Hezbollah terrorists killed yesterday by an exploding pager. Apparently, one of the walkie talkies used by a funeral participant went off. As an aside, I thought the "exploding pager" operation was one of the top covert operations of all time. But to immediately follow it up with exploding radios? Sublime brilliance.

Last post by Tripoli - Today at 11:13:48 AMLooks like the pager manufacturer also diversified into handheld radios:
https://www.theepochtimes.com/world/second-wave-of-explosions-hits-communications-devices-across-lebanon-5726302?src_src=RTNews&src_cmp=rtbreaking-2024-09-18-2&est=AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAcvYuYxYAxsnazLIBsitaBLnhy1OIIaRaw8FzbQGF7Sso
In a second day of exploding devices, hand-held radios used by Hezbollah detonated late Wednesday afternoon across southern Lebanon and in Beirut's southern suburbs, a security source and a witness told Reuters.
At least one of the blasts occurred near a funeral organized by the Iran-backed Hezbollah for those killed the previous day, when thousands of pagers used by the group exploded across the country, wounding many members of the terrorist group.
Hezbollah's Al Manar TV reported explosions in multiple areas of Lebanon, which it said were caused by detonating walkie-talkies.
The Epoch Times has not been able to independently corroborate these claims.
On Tuesday evening local time, Lebanon's state-run National News Agency reported that some 2,800 people were injured in the pager blasts and eight more were killed, including a child. The National News Agency reported that most people injured in the mass pager explosions sustained injuries to their hands.
Among those reported killed on Tuesday was Mahdi Ammar, the son of a Hezbollah-affiliated member of the Lebanese Parliament named Ali Ammar.
On Tuesday, the Taiwanese pager manufacturer whose branding appeared on the remnants of beepers that exploded in Lebanon claimed they were manufactured by another company in Hungary.
The model of pagers used in the detonations in Lebanon was made by Budapest-based BAC Consulting, the Taiwanese firm Gold Apollo said.
The firm added that it had only licensed its brand to the company and was not involved in the production of the devices.
The Epoch Times has reached out to BAC Consulting for comment.
This is a developing story and will be updated.

Last post by Jarhead0331 - Today at 11:02:11 AMVery early in development, but looks very interesting and promising. Sort of like what I was hoping IL-2 Tanks would have been. He says, "AI will be available" but I hope it really gets some single-player love.
