The number of victims has increased to 2,750 after massive pager explosions in Lebanon. There are several children among the dead.
One-way pagers are passive receivers, making them difficult to track. Therefore, they were actively used by Hezbollah members in Lebanon. Despite being encrypted, sending a message to the devices activates all pager transmitters in the desired area. By intercepting a broadcast signal, hackers can infect all devices simultaneously.
Previously, this is what they did during the attack on Lebanon. The virus could have been introduced into Hezbollah's pager network several days before the attack – all this time it was in sleep mode. In order for the malware to spread to more pagers. It was then activated remotely, either by radio signal or by a pre-programmed timer.
UPD. The condition of more than 170 victims is assessed by doctors as serious, reports the Ministry of Health of the Republic.
