On September 17, a series of simultaneous explosions from handheld pagers rocked Lebanon and parts of Syria, resulting in at least 8 deaths and injuring 2,750 people, according to the country's health minister. The blasts were caused by pagers reportedly used by members of the militant group Hezbollah, which malfunctioned and exploded. Among the casualties were Hezbollah members and a young girl, with the Iranian ambassador also sustaining injuries. The pagers, which had reportedly heated up before detonating, led to chaos and widespread damage across the region. Beirut Blast: Dozens Hezbollah Members Wounded After Pagers Detonate in Lebanon, Media and Security Officials Say (Watch Videos).
