The Jewish state has not claimed responsibility for an incident in which some 2,700 pagers belonging to Hezbollah terrorists exploded in Lebanon and Syria earlier this week. But critics of Israel accused it of violating international law and of being responsible for the attack.

“Israel’s pager attack in Lebanon detonated thousands of handheld devices across of a slew of public spaces, seriously injuring and killing innocent civilians,” stated U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a member of the so-called “squad” and a frequent critic of Israel.
