At least nine people have been killed and over 2,750 others, including Hezbollah militants and medics, were injured when their paging devices exploded across Lebanon. Instead, authorities are leaning towards the possibility that the devices were intentionally rigged with explosive materials. Despite its simplicity, the AP-900 operates on a sophisticated system that ensures messages are delivered promptly and accurately.
