Hezbollah thought going back to using pagers would help them
Only thing they went and got new pagers - pagers used by Hezbollah members were equipped with lithium batteries, which were likely responsible for the explosions - With batteries, a chain reaction called thermal runaway can cause the battery to generate even more heat and eventually catch fire or explode - the handheld pagers system was detonated using advanced technology that technology we don't know about
if malware was used, which some say was used, you could potentially gain access to a device's battery management system, which controls charging and discharging, and issue commands to rapidly overcharge the battery or prevent it from regulating heat dissipation properly. This could lead to the battery overheating and potentially catching fire or exploding.
If a Hezbollah pager shipment was intercepted that malware coulda then been put on they pagers - again some say that happened
@Dane if you are talking about the one in the market place then that wasn't a battery fire that could be a battery explosion and looked like a battery explosion to me
There are plenty videos and cases of batteries actually exploding and not a flame to be seen - its more smoke than flames
Im just speculating though
@Dane that just gives a lil credit to the shipment being intercepted narrative
Could be all they pagers had been tampered with and somehow a method had been found to speed up the process - malware/firmware attack - or small amount of explosion compound had been put in they devices
Back in 1996, Israel’s Shin Bet agency assassinated a Hamas bombmaker with explosives in his phone
Both are speculation though but one is real 😜😂
@ecksmc indeed. Me 2. The chemical reaction happened very fast. Faster than I've seen batterys do. I dunno...
