The Lebanese Health Minister recently updated the figures, stating that the number of injured in Lebanon has risen to 4,000, with 11 confirmed dead.

Earlier this evening, additional details emerged about the beeper attack in Lebanon, which resulted in over 4,000 injuries among Hezbollah militants. A Lebanese security source told Al Jazeera that the communication devices were pre-rigged with explosives. He noted that the weight of the explosive material did not exceed 20 grams. He also explained that the devices were received about five months ago and that an investigation is ongoing regarding the activation of the explosive.

Additionally, exclusive sources informed Sky News Arabia that the Mossad planted PETN explosive material in the devices' batteries and detonated them by increasing the battery temperature. According to the report, the Mossad managed to access Hezbollah's communication devices before they were distributed to the organization.
