Lebanon was rocked by a second wave of explosions targeting walkie-talkies and pagers, resulting in at least 20 deaths and over 450 injuries, according to the Health Ministry. The attacks, believed to be carried out by Israel against Hezbollah, have raised concerns of escalating conflict between the two sides.
