Reconstructive surgeons at the American University of Beirut Medical Center have highlighted the extensive road to recovery facing many individuals injured by the recent explosions of wireless devices in Lebanon.

The incidents, which occurred as a result of a joint operation by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and Mossad, have had devastating consequences. The detonation of pagers on Tuesday led to the death of 12 individuals and left 2,800 others wounded. Subsequently, on Wednesday, walkie-talkies exploded, resulting in the loss of at least 37 lives and causing injuries to 450 people.
