Exploding walkie-talkies kill 14 and injure at least 450 in new attacks across Lebanon | BBC News


Exploding walkie-talkies have killed 14 and injured at least 450 people across Lebanon, the country’s health ministry says.

The blasts come a day after exploding pagers killed 12 people, including two children, and left almost 3,000 in hospital.

Media reports say walkie-talkies used by the armed group Hezbollah blew up in the southern suburbs of the capital Beirut, the Bekaa Valley, and southern Lebanon, which are seen as its strongholds.

The militant group blamed Israel for the exploding devices, while Israeli officials have so far declined to comment.
