So, let me get this straight.....
Hezbollah gets thousands of its people scrambled by hacked pagers.
Then, the very next day, they get say "Well, we didn't see that coming. Let's start using another electronic wireless device (with a rechargeable battery whose supply chain we haven't analyzed) to communicate. There's nothing to worry about with those, right?"
If laptops and cellphones start killing people on Thursday and then Friday ..... I dunno...

These specific devices were ordered after Oct 7th after Hizb'Allah and Hamas members were ordered to abandon their smartphones by the leader of IRGC (I think it was him) so Israel couldn't track communications...he told them to switch to pagers so they ordered a bunch...during transit after they ordered them, thats when they were intercepted and modified. They weren't the whole company's stock...just that order, which was supposedly a LARGE order.
@jurban
Correction: It was Hassan Nasrallah, leader of Hizb'Allah, who ordered their members to abandon their phones
"In February, Hassan Nasrallah directed Hezbollah fighters to get rid of their phones, saying they had been infiltrated by Israeli intelligence. He told his forces to break, bury or lock their phones in an iron box."

@Usama_Backhair @jurban I'm not completely without a (morbid) sense of humor.
