Iran’s Guards ban communications devices after deadly attack on Hezbollah

IRAN’S REVOLUTIONARY GUARDS CORE HAS BANNED ALL COMMUNICATION DEVICES FOLLOWING A DEADLY ATTACK ON HEZBOLLAH IN LEBANON. 

LAST WEEK, THOUSANDS OF PAGERS AND WALKIE-TALKIES USED BY HEZBOLLAH WERE REPORTEDLY DETONATED IN A COORDINATED STRIKE… KILLING AT LEAST 39 PEOPLE AND INJURING OVER 3 THOUSAND.

NOW… THE I-R-G-C IS ON HIGH ALERT, LAUNCHING A MASSIVE INSPECTION OF ALL COMMUNICATION DEVICES, WITH MORE ATTENTION AIMED AT MID TO HIGH RANKING MEMBERS.

IRAN IS ALSO WORKING WITH HEZBOLLAH TO EXAMINE THE REMAINS OF THE EXPLODED DEVICES, WHICH WERE MOSTLY HOMEMADE OR IMPORTED FROM CHINA AND RUSSIA. IN RESPONSE TO THE ATTACKS, SECURITY MEASURES HAVE BEEN HEIGHTENED AT CRITICAL IRANIAN MISSILE AND NUCLEAR FACILITIES.

TENSIONS BETWEEN IRAN, ISRAEL AND HEZBOLLAH HAVE ESCALATED IN RECENT MONTHS, WITH ACCUSATIONS OF SHADOW WARFARE AND SABOTAGE. WHILE LEBANON AND HEZBOLLAH BLAME ISRAEL FOR THE ATTACK… ISRAEL HAS NEITHER CONFIRMED NOR DENIED INVOLVEMENT.
