Walkie talkies used by Hezbollah fighters have detonated across Lebanon, wounding at least 10 Hezbollah fighters, witnesses and security sources said.
This comes a day after thousands of explosive beepers used by the group left nearly 3,000 people injured and a dozen dead, including civilians and children.
Hezbollah purchased the portable radios five months ago, around the same time as the compromised pagers, a security source has now revealed.
The latest explosions this afternoon hit the south of the country and the southern suburbs of the capital, Beirut, a security source and a witness said.
At least one of the explosions heard took place near a funeral organized by Hezbollah for those killed the previous day.
This is breaking news, there will be more news soon.
