recently, pagers and walkie-talkies exploded in many places in lebanon, and these two "outdated devices" have re-entered the public eye.

previously, in order to avoid being monitored and tracked, especially after several commanders were "targeted and eliminated" by the israeli army, hezbollah members in lebanon generally gave up their smartphones and turned to pagers and walkie-talkies with lower technology content. on the 17th local time, "bb machines (pagers)" exploded in many places in lebanon. the next day, walkie-talkies used by hezbollah in lebanon also exploded in many places in lebanon. one of the explosions occurred at a funeral for the victims of the explosion on the 17th.

"under the background of the fourth industrial revolution, high-tech products such as electronic equipment and drones will become important factors affecting the regional situation." on the 19th, sun degang, director of the middle east research center of fudan university, analyzed to nandu reporters that in this incident, the attackers used high-tech means to carry out precise military strikes on specific targets, indicating that military means are becoming increasingly non-traditional.

shu meng, assistant researcher at the institute of middle east studies at shanghai international studies university, believes that the explosion has opened a new pandora's box. "people are beginning to panic about supply chain security. countries will tend to create a closed supply chain and build higher security walls in the production of sensitive goods. this has a far-reaching potential impact on the global supply chain system."
