A senior U.S. official has confirmed that Israel is responsible for the explosions of pagers used by members of Hezbollah in Lebanon. The detonations of pagers, utilized by the Iran-backed Hezbollah terror group, resulted in the tragic deaths of at least 12 individuals, including two children, and left nearly 3,000 people wounded.

Following the initial explosions, additional blasts were reported in Beirut during a funeral for Hezbollah members and a child who lost their lives in the previous day's incidents.
