🔴🔥Al-Qassam Brigades destroy Zionist vehicles and hang their flag on top!
➖➖➖
A Zionist APC is obliterated with a Yassin RPG, and a D-9 military bulldozer gets ambushed at night and burned a day later

“The occupation forces aren’t able to pull out their vehicles”, says the Qassami as he hangs the Brigades banner on the bulldozer before setting it on fire:

“This is for our brothers in Yemen, and the Axis of Resistance!”

As the cowardly Mossad carry out a second terrorist attack against Lebanon, targeting normal iPhones and computers this time, their army is being wiped out in Gaza

A nice analysis stated that if the Zionists actually wanted to carry out a ground invasion, they would have left this card to play in the right moment as a pre-emptive strike. NATO media has been promoting the story that the plan was uncovered earlier and was meant to be much bigger, but was a “play it or lose it” situation – which is bullshit. A contribution to the strategy of dramatisation and psych-war, the tactic was only used for an image of victory against Lebanon for the ZionNazi masses, the source for this story was Western media

All our solidarity, salutations and love for our Lebanese brothers and sisters for their sacrifices – yet this does not change anything in the battleground developments

🟡 If “Israel” thought this was the biggest possible surprise, they will be much more surprised at the next phase of escalation by Hezbollah – 20 years of war technology development have not been unveiled yet. The historical defeat shall continue

Long live the South 🇱🇧❤️🇵🇸

⭕ Information on spontaneous explosions of connected and unconnected devices in Lebanon.

Initially, the information referred to pagers or remote alarms, but it seems that GPS modules in certain vehicles and smartphones are causing problems.
⭕ Confirmation of the devices that exploded today in Lebanon:

– Vehicle-mounted radios;

– Walkie-talkies;

– Dell Laptops.
⭕ USA 🇺🇸: Police found explosives in car near Trump rally planned for Wednesday night on Long Island – Daily Mail
⭕ Interesting…Now we understand why the Russian army has never wanted to equip its forces with similar devices. The Russians preferred to remain without tactical communications rather than expose themselves to such a scenario.
⭕ The reasons given by many non-aligned countries for their refusal to buy Western weapons systems are justified. These weapons, particularly fighter jets and missiles, remain under control via backdoors and hidden self-destruct systems.
⭕ Lebanese security source: “Mobile phones from Apple, Google and Samsung exploded today”.
⭕ Buying a €/$1,000-plus cell phone to spy on you and track you down was fine… But buying one so that it can kill you at will by exploding on command? What’s happening in Lebanon will have profound repercussions on the electronics market (South Korean expert on Arirang TV)
⭕ Government alert in Lebanon:

“all citizens are called upon to immediately dispose of any recently imported Lithium-ion battery-powered devices. Extreme vigilance recommended”.
⭕ Why are guys who like old cars always right?
⭕ Urgent | Lebanese Hezbollah: We bombarded the headquarters of a company belonging to the 810th Harmon Brigade at the Habushit site with a barrage of Katyusha rockets.
⭕ Israeli media:

“What we’re seeing in the two waves of explosions in Lebanon is a kind of doomsday weapon in terms of “technological intelligence” that has been kept secret until now and is now being revealed for the purpose of carrying out a large-scale cyber-attack within the framework of capabilities that only appear in times of total war. We are in a phase of total war”.
[And who will suffer most with lights, electricity, and accordingly AC and internet out??]
⭕ Chinese engineers have developed a passive radar that emits nothing and cannot be detected, yet can easily detect even small drones like the DJI Phantom 4 Pro or stealth aircraft.
⭕ The concept behind this radar is to use the Starlink space constellation as a signal transmitter, given that there are already over 6,000 satellites in the sky, and that they are always illuminating the target. All that remains is to process the signal and determine whether it is distorted. There’s no need to connect to Starlink and pay a subscription for this.

Previously, a similar idea had been proposed for using WiFi as a home security system. They simply upped the ante a little.

The US will now have to think about whether to use the global internet or jam satellites so they don’t reveal stealth aircraft.

💠 @Pepe:
⭕ A senior Lebanese source quoted by Reuters said the Mossad planted explosives in the Gold Apollo beepers “at production level.”

Golden Apollo is adamant: the pagers were produced by European firm BAC, licensed to use their branding.

Ergo, Mossad infiltration was in Europe – soooo much easier for the usual suspects.
⭕ ISRAEL PAGER ATTACK UPDATE

The Israeli pager attack was NOT a cyber-attack, much less hacking.

It was electronic warfare – with the West possibly, DIRECTLY involved.

Taiwan’s Golden Apollo, which manufactured the pagers, stresses they were actually manufactured by an EUROPEAN  licensee, which could have been easily infiltrated by Israeli intel.

Moreover, the attack was not directed only against Hezbollah – but mostly against doctors and nurses.

The ONLY exception was the hospital of the American University in Beirut: they asked their staff to replace their pagers 10 days ago.

So the target of the op was essentially CIVILIANS.

Ergo, this is straight up terrorism.

A mirror image of The War OF Terror by Kiev goons on Russia, fully supported by the collective West.

⭕ 🇺🇸🇨🇳 A neglected airfield on a small Pacific island that played a pivotal role in ending World War II is being reclaimed by the U.S. Air Force as it prepares for a possible fight with China.

The remote island of Tinian, less than 40 square miles in size, is one of three main islands in the Northern Mariana Islands, a chain of sparsely populated islets in the western Pacific Ocean that forms the westernmost border of the United States, with the major military hub of Guam about 100 miles to the south.

As part of the Pentagon’s Pacific Deterrence Initiative, which places the multi-domain threat from China at the forefront of U.S. defense planning, three projects will add airfield operations to Tinian for refueling, takeoff and landing, and parking, all in support of operations in the vast Indo-Pacific theater.

⭕ ❗️Western countries have contributed to the emergence of terrorism in Russia and Africa for their own benefit, the Russian foreign ministry’s spokeswoman says at the Eurasian Women’s Forum

🗣 “Africa suffers from terrorism because it is brought there from outside, because it is profitable for Western companies to trade weapons, throwing new and new problems there. Because under the aegis of terrorism it is profitable and possible to take away resources, sow chaos, political instability, interfere in internal affairs,” Maria Zakharova said.

👉 According to her, the same was done to Russia when it struggled against terrorism in its Northern Caucasus regions in the 1990s.

🗣A new ordeal that Russia is facing is “European terrorism, a totally new phenomenon, created by the Western mentality in order to carry out its policy of oppression, selection of resources, enslavement at a new level,” Zakharova noted.

History will remember what the collective West did to Gaza and the entire region. We will be unforgiving.

There was little if any of military value with the pager sabotage. They were detonated at time of extreme distress for Zion, in broad daylight, to maximize videos of casualties. The same narrative switch and atrocity porn UkroNazis obtain from droning and bombing the Crimea bridge (commemorative stamps at the ready) or civilians in Russia proper.

They also targeted the health care sector of Lebanon, as most these appear to have been carried by docs and nurses and first responders and techs. Iran immediately offered to take in and help with the wounded; Iraq is sending health care workers to assist..

These are not wars. They’ve become open season on opposing societies by the supranational nazis. A vital first task will be to neutralize their local assets — both imported tech, ISR, and local agents, both fifth column and foreign…

💠 @DDGeopolitics:
⭕ Looks an awful lot like terrorism to us!
⭕️ Repeated Sabotage: Israel’s operation against Hezbollah today Was Attempted on Hamas in 2009.

In 2009, an attempt similar to the one targeting Hezbollah was made against Hamas. Hamas had imported a large number of devices from Kenwood, which the Israeli army had rigged with explosives. However, Hamas engineers detected the threat at the last moment and foiled the operation.
⭕ Confirming what we posted earlier, Exclusive sources for Sky News:

The Mossad placed a quantity of highly explosive PETN material on the devices’ battery and it was detonated by raising the battery’s temperature. The source said the amount of explosives did not exceed 20 grams.
⭕ From what we can gather from Arabic sources, it seems that Unit 8200/Mossad salted thousands of pagers with explosives before releasing them out into the public. They used mass messages to heat up the battery, which then detonated the plastic explosive.

Three types of pagers were targeted that we know of:
Motorola LX2
Teletrim
Gold Apollo Rugged Pager AR924

These pagers are still widely used among civilians in Lebanon, where cell networks are not as common for a variety of reasons.
[This factor alone makes it clear, as with the western approach against Russia, the objective was neither military nor Hezbollah but to seed civilian terror to lead to internal weakening for Hezbollah. And they’ll find, as in Russia, the very opposite response..]
⭕ The sabotage of communication systems in Lebanon points to Israel’s intent to escalate military operations in the Middle East, according to a statement from the Syrian Foreign Ministry.
⭕ Hezbollah mourns 8 of its fighters, 6 of whom were martyred in the explosion of communication devices and 2 in the shelling of the village of Majdal Silm.
⭕ We are still waiting for the US government to condemn the political violence by the Zionist regime against thousands of democratically elected Hezbollah politicians. We suspect we will be waiting a long time.

Remember, Hezbollah is more than just an army, they are a political party which is currently in the governing coalition of Lebanon. For every soldier, they have hundreds or thousands of civilian members who run the various services and political infrastructure necessary to run a state.  Killing them for what their army does would be like bombing Democratic politicians because of what they are doing in Ukraine or Yemen. Think about how they would react if 4000 members of the democratic party were attacked, along with their families. Why is it alright when the Zionists do it?

That is the real face of the “rules based international [Terrorism] order.” One set of rules for us, another for them.
⭕ Taiwan’s Gold Apollo pager company issued a statement stating:

– The pagers that exploded in Lebanon carry our trademark, but they were manufactured in Europe

– All AP924 Model Pager models were subcontracted to a company in Europe, about 5,000 in that batch to Lebanon

– The pagers were manufactured in through third party components

They are trying to clear Taiwan, which is mostly plausible, as Europe was always the hub for the Mossad historically when sabotaging supply chains.

⭕ The first confirmed [pager] death; a 10 year old girl from Beqaa valley
⭕ Hezbollah has released its first initial statement:

‘At approximately 15:30 in the afternoon on Tuesday, September 17, 2024, a number of message receiving devices known as ‘pager’ and carried by a number of people in various Hezbollah units and institutions exploded. These mysterious explosions have so far led to the killing of a girl and two opertives, and a large number of injuries nationwide. ‏

The competent agencies within Hezbollah are currently conducting a wide-ranging security and scientific investigation to find out the reasons that led to these simultaneous explosions, and the medical and health services are treating the wounded and injured in a number of hospitals in various Lebanese regions.

We ask God Almighty for mercy upon our righteous martyrs on the road to Jerusalem, and we pray for a speedy recovery for the wounded and injured, and we call on our dear people to beware of the rumors and false and misleading information spread by some parties in a way that serves psychological warfare in the interest of the Zionist enemy, especially since this is accompanied by intimidating and threatening speeches of the Zionist enemy and what he calls ‘changing the situation in the North’.‏

We affirm that the resistance at all levels and its various units is at the highest readiness to defend Lebanon and its steadfast people.’
⭕ Hezbollah’s second official statement:

‘After examining all the current facts, data, and available information about the sinful attack that took place this afternoon, we hold the Israeli enemy fully responsible for this criminal aggression, which also affected civilians and led to a number of martyrs and the wounding of a large number of various different types.

Our martyrs and wounded are the symbol of our struggle and sacrifices on the road to Jerusalem, a victory for our honorable people in Gaza and the West Bank, and continued field support, and this position of our support for the valiant Palestinian resistance will remain a source of pride and honour in this world and the hereafter.

This treacherous and criminal enemy will certainly receive his just retribution for this sinful aggression, from where it is expected and from where it is not expected, and God is, as we say, a witness.’

💠 @ejmalrai:
⭕ Hezbollah suffered many casualties due to #Israel’s cyber sabotage and intelligence operation. A sophisticated operation by #Israeli intelligence is targeting #Hezbollah’s communication devices, specifically the pagers distributed to its militants. This operation likely involved multiple layers of cyber and electronic warfare expertise. Here’s an analysis of how such an event might unfold and its implications:

Technical Intrusion: For Israel to embed an explosive trigger within the new batch of pagers, they would have likely needed access to the supply chain of these devices.

Israeli intelligence has infiltrated the production process, adding an explosive component and remote triggering mechanism into the pagers without raising suspicion.

Use of a Third-Party: The involvement of a third-party seller points to a possible intelligence front or a compromised intermediary facilitating the distribution of these tampered devices to Hezbollah.

Remote Activation: The mention of an explosion implies a remote triggering mechanism, possibly using a specific frequency or coded signal that activates the explosive device inside the pager. This requires both technical sophistication and precise timing to maximize casualties.

Security Breach: This incident indicates a significant breach within Hezbollah’s security protocols. The organization’s failure to detect the tampered pagers before their distribution suggests a gap in their supply chain vetting and internal security measures. Implications of the Incident

Success for Israeli Intelligence: This operation demonstrates Israel’s ability to penetrate Hezbollah’s supply network and execute a highly targeted attack. It serves as a psychological attack on Hezbollah, creating mistrust and fear regarding their equipment.

Limited Strategic Impact: Despite the immediate casualties and the breach of Hezbollah’s operational security, such an incident might not significantly alter the overall balance of power between Israel and Hezbollah. Hezbollah remains a deeply entrenched and well-armed organization with a robust support network. While this event could lead to internal audits and tightened security measures within Hezbollah, it’s unlikely to cripple its operational capabilities in the long term.

Psychological and Security Fallout: The operation could generate internal paranoia within Hezbollah, prompting extensive internal investigations and causing distrust among its ranks. However, this psychological impact, while disruptive, may not translate into a tangible shift in the power dynamics between the two adversaries.
⭕ Israel Cyber attack against #Hezbollah:

1. Size Constraints of a Pager

A standard pager is typically around 4 to 5 centimeters in width, 7 to 8 centimeters in length, and 1.5 to 2 centimeters in thickness. This small size limits the amount of explosive material that can be packed into the device. The internal components of the pager (battery, circuit board, display) further reduce the available space for an explosive.

2. Types of Explosives Used

Given the limited space, only a small amount of a very powerful explosive could be used, such as:

RDX (Cyclotrimethylene trinitramine): A high-energy explosive that can be molded into small shapes. Its detonation velocity is around 8,750 m/s, making even a small quantity highly effective.

PETN (Pentaerythritol tetranitrate): Another powerful explosive often used in compact, controlled demolition devices. A small quantity can generate a high-velocity blast.

3. Potential Explosive Yield
A pager might hold a few grams of high explosives, such as 3 to 5 grams of RDX or PETN. While this may seem small, the power of these materials means that such a quantity can produce a significant explosion.

Blast Impact: If positioned close to a vital area (such as on a person’s body), the blast could cause fatal injuries. The explosion’s lethality would be maximized by proximity, resulting in shrapnel injuries from the pager’s casing, burns, and a concussive blast effect.

4. Triggering Mechanism
The compact nature of a pager allows for the incorporation of an electronic trigger, such as:

Remote activation via a radio signal.
Time-delay circuits.
Vibration or motion sensors to trigger detonation upon movement.
⭕ Israel has a history of using booby-trapped explosive devices to target individuals and groups deemed threats, particularly in conflicts with Palestinian factions and Hezbollah. Here are specific instances where Israel used explosive devices to achieve its objectives |History|
⭕ Stop producing nonsense: hundreds of batteries don’t explode on their own simultaneously in different locations in Beirut, Bekaa, South of Lebanon and Syria.
⭕ I do not exclude that #Israel’s intelligence, with the help of another state actor intelligence service, managed to penetrate a critical part of #Iran’s logistical support to #Hezbollah, an organisation that relies heavily on Iranian assistance for its operations and equipments
[Cough, cough .. combined West .. cough, cough]
⭕ The rechargeable pagers were confiscated and held for some time before being released and shipped to #Lebanon. There, #Israel tampered the pagers and placed the 1-3 gram explosive device in each pager.
