Because fuck collateral damage.
/s
The whole war is collateral damage. War is collateral damage.
Update: Israel Planted Explosives in Pagers Sold to Hezbollah, Officials Say (https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/17/world/middleeast/israel-hezbollah-pagers-explosives.html)
Terrorists gonna terrorize.
Think for a minute about the implications of this attack.
Israel, which is not even the country with the biggest military capability in the world, can implant and activate remotely about 2 thousand devices that fit in your pocket with explosive strong enough to kill you.
They don't need military capability, just influence and control over regional freight and shipping, which they have in spades.
So it's a supply chain attack, not remote battery detonation attack. Boring.
Update: there was a second attack in which they attacked all sort of devices check the news
