Jerusalem. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu admitted for the first time that his country was behind pager and walkie-talkie attacks targeting Hezbollah in September, which killed at least 39 people and injured more than 3,000. . This information has been given in the reports in local media. “The campaign to eliminate Pager and Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was carried out despite opposition from senior officials in the defense establishment and his supporters in the political sphere,” The Times of Israel newspaper quoted Netanyahu as saying.

Netanyahu made the comments during Sunday’s weekly Cabinet meeting, according to Hebrew media reports. Israel has not yet publicly claimed responsibility for these attacks, but there was widespread speculation that it was behind these successfully executed complex attacks. These attacks shocked the world. On September 16, thousands of explosive-laden pagers belonging to Hezbollah supporters were detonated in parts of Lebanon and Syria.

Before people around the world could recover from the news of the pager explosion, a day later on September 17, walkie-talkies also exploded, which shocked the world about the level of intelligence preparedness of Israel in the war against the Lebanese Shia militia. Netanyahu’s statement is being understood in the context of the prime minister’s efforts to remove Defense Minister Yoav Galant and increase his personal popularity by taking credit for the war’s success. Gallant was removed from the post of Defense Minister on November 5.
