An unusual event was observed in Lebanon on Sunday, where hundreds of Hezbollah fighters and civilians were left seriously wounded.
According to preliminary information, Hezbollah fighters detonated radios simultaneously.
This has caused many to receive severe injuries by losing their hands or fingers in some cases, and fatal injuries for those who had the radio transmitters close to vital organs during the explosion.
Local media reports suspect an Israeli intelligence attack that somehow managed to hack the radio network and make them explode simultaneously.
Hospitals in Lebanon were seen packed with hundreds of people seriously injured by the blasts, with the number of injured people reported to be more than 2,000.
Watch out! The views can be heavy!
