They achieved an incredible blow. Max pain, confusion, fear, disbelief and lack of trust in anything. Population probably throwing everything out. This isn't even AI, drone, robot war yet.
Wild News. Makes me think, is my phone in my pocket just a remote bomb waiting to go off if the government hates me? Maybe it's not actually possible, but it made me think that instantly lol

Mandibles. Is the bomb in your head or is it in your mind?
Bring out the pigeons
I am suprised they are so comfy as a terrorist group to not be more opsec.
It’s not something that has a precedent, I’ve never heard of anything like this
In addition, it’s even more unexpected they’d do it on such a mass scale
Actually, Israel has a long history of planting bombs in phones and radios.
Hizb Allah really should have known better.
I didn’t know that, shit is scary
IIRC, in the 80s there was a Palestinian terrorist leader hiding in Lebanon so paranoid he would only communicate from public pay-telephones.
Israeli operatives started rigging the public telephone handsets with small bombs and eventually got him. No idea how many local civilians died, of course, and the locals had no certain knowledge of who was booby-trapping their public phones.
If something equivalent happened in a Western country tomorrow people would blame anything from space aliens to Trump, and only half would believe the official story even if officials figured it out.
Its not like the movies. IRL, anyone likely to agonise over (non-attributable) collateral damage will not rise to a position where they will be making such decisions...
Jesus, what a terrorist state
TBF, most Western countries do this too, just more carefully and selectively.
French operatives once openly bombed a Greenpeace vessel lol but that was shocking because it was so blatant and aimed at middleclass+ white people.
Usually its more like my old mentor, who had a background in EOD and became a bomb-making instructor hired to teach the clandestine services of several South American governments. At the time he thought he was saving the world from communism but really he was helping to terrorise poor communities for fascism...
Oh don’t get me wrong, I think all states are terrorists. Israel’s audacity is just mind blowing
