Hundreds of pagers blew up at the same time across Lebanon today in an apparent operation against Hezbollah.

Israel hid small amounts of explosives within Taiwanese-made pagers before they were imported into Lebanon, U.S. and other officials said. At 3:30 p.m. in Lebanon, the pagers received a message that appeared as though it was coming from Hezbollah’s leadership. Instead, the message activated the explosives. We have live updates.

At least nine people, including a young girl, were killed, and more than 2,700 were injured, the country’s health minister said. Iran’s ambassador to Lebanon was also wounded, and Hezbollah said that six of the people killed were fighters. The Israeli military has not commented or claimed responsibility.

Witnesses reported seeing smoke coming from people’s pockets, followed by small blasts that sounded like fireworks or gunshots. Videos showed people being knocked off their feet and others with gruesome injuries.

In Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is said to be considering firing his defense minister, Yoav Gallant.
