They’ve done pagers, radios, and cellphones.
Drones that flap like a bird exist, one being used as a suicide drone wouldn’t surprise me at all.

My understanding of this is those pagers and the network they were connected to were only for use by Hesbollah.
This predates the NSA, but they blew up a Russian pipeline with modified software.
I suspect that’s not far off from what Israel did, from my understanding they modified a device’s at a production level, it sounds like they essentially redesigned the pager.
It will be interesting to see how they did it with the radios.
Is anyone even remotely surprised by this?
I imagine being at war with Israel will induce paranoia from here out.
He was probably meeting with someone who had one, being an ambassador and all.
Multiple news articles are saying this was a production level attack, on devices that were specifically ordered by Hesbollah.
Those devices were bought by Hesbollah, for their soldiers to use, and were connected to a network they operate.
From what I understand about the attack, even if one of these devices made it’s way into the hands of a doctor, it would have to be connected to the Hesbollah network to detonate.
They’re already at war though.
To take this to it’s logical extreme, how do you feel about assassination attempts on high ranking Nazi officials? They’re non combatants, after all.
If what’s described in the story is accurate, this is incredibly impressive work.
You can buy cellphones that weigh less than 80g, someone would notice.
Likely because the bulk of those wounded by this attack were not Hezbollah
What makes you think that? These pagers were bought by Hesbollah to be used by their guys.
Israelis and cops just doesn’t sound as snappy.
Misguided? No, it’s a scam, just like almost every other crypto coin.

My dad had an on call pager back in the day that ran on AA batteries.
This has some more details about how it was supposedly done.
Apparently they were modified to at the production level with explosives. Crazy stuff.
I’m glad people can appreciate the achievement, even if they don’t support their actions.
