And killed at least one child.

Supplying expllsive devices they can't trace or track possession of is not precise, it's against the Geneva Convention.

It seems a bit odd the pagers could be triggered remotely to explode but they weren't trackable?
 
No, they operate using radio waves. Easy to trigger.

We don't know if a small explosive was buried within the device and rigged to go off at a certain time or a command/s caused the battery to suddenly overheat and explode.

They've probably been tracking for months. It took years for the public to become aware of their Pegasus spyware.

Israel just created a massive and growing trove of information about both known and previously unknown Hezbollah militants, as well as their supporters, partners, friends, family members, colleagues, workplaces, vehicles, and homes. They just created an incredibly dense and up-to-date social graph of an entire terrorist network, across Lebanon as well as neighboring countries.
 
Israel are clearly terrorists. Hezbollah now has the right to self defense.

It's a bit like this now, at what point of Israel continuing to kill civilians across multiple countries in 'self-defence' do people start to just lump them in with a country like Russia.

If Lebanon uses Israel’s definition of self defense, they could drop 80,000+ bombs across Israel.

Either way these are thousands of uncontrolled, indiscriminate attacks.

Can you imagine the hysterics if someone blew up 2000 Israeli devices, killing children?

You mean like the thousands of uncontrolled, indiscriminate rockets Hezbollah has launched at Israel in the past year?
 
You can't really point that finger, Israel's status as terrorists is confirmed, and you're a fervent supporter.

When someone says Israel should be destroyed and then points the finger at them calling them terrorists for defending themselves against terrorists I think I can point the finger.

In fact Im pointing it straight at you.

According to the NYT 6 of the 9 deaths were Hezbollah, with thousands injured (approx. 200 in serious conditions) many with eye injuries, and no way of knowing who would be where (are they with their kids for example) when the explosions went off.

Thousands injured:
The U.N.’s special coordinator for Lebanon, Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, said the death toll had risen to nine people killed. Hezbollah told The New York Times that six of the nine people were Hezbollah fighters. Lebanon’s Ministry of Health said that a young girl was also among those killed and that more than 2,700 others were injured. Lebanon’s health minister, Dr. Firass Abiad, said many of the victims had injuries to their faces, particularly the eyes, as well as to their hands and stomachs. Iran’s ambassador to Lebanon, Mojtaba Amini, suffered injuries to his hand and face when a pager he was carrying exploded, according to Iranian state news media reports.

In addition, there's been quite an impact on the civilian population - schools closed, residents scared to answer phone calls, hospitals at capacity:

Schools across Lebanon will be closed on Wednesday, Lebanese state media said, citing a statement from the country’s minister of education, Abbas Al-Halabi.

Residents in Lebanon are scared to answer calls. One resident, Khadijeh Fouani, was preparing winter food supplies when she answered her phone by crying out, "Please hang up, hang up!"

Lebanon’s health minister, Firass Abiad, said that that hundreds of people had been injured in the blasts. “We are trying to absorb all the casualties,” he told The New York Times, adding that some hospitals were already at full capacity amid the sudden surge of patients. Lebanon’s Health Ministry appealed for blood donations and told health workers to urgently head to their places of work.

Meanwhile, the death in Gaza continues:

Israeli airstrikes on homes near the Bureij neighborhood in central Gaza on Tuesday morning killed at least five people, including a child, and dozens remained trapped under the rubble at nightfall, the local emergency services said.

The Palestinian Civil Defense said that it had received dozens of calls for help from people who were wounded and trapped and that more than 50 people, including several families, were believed to be inside the buildings when they were hit.
 
Either way these are thousands of uncontrolled, indiscriminate attacks.

It's going to be important to know how they did it because like Pegasus, Israel used the technology first then it went on the market and it's on the loose. The Saudis were using it.

If the pagers were ordered by Hezbollah and members identified as using them, I'm not sure it could be considered uncontrolled and indiscriminate. It's targeted.

The only thing I can find this far that might certainly breach the Geneva Convention is if the explosive element in the phone was less than 400g.

I assume the 'uncontrolled and indiscriminate' part he's referring to is not knowing at 3:30pm when the message was sent to detonate the pager; who would be holding the pager? where would the pager be? where would the person with the pager be? who else might be harmed? None of this could be known.

And the result is a dead 8 year old girl who I'd be pretty confident isn't Hezbollah.

Hezbollah is a non-state actor and the Geneva Convention does not apply to them.

Also are we sure that Hezbollah didn't accidentally tick the box for self destructing messages when they ordered from temu?
