Crazy, that tactic sounds straight out of a science fiction novel - 80s science-fiction, given it’s pagers, but still… I really wonder how they pulled it off. Did the IDF design the explosive pagers in the first place or did they find some insane hardware/software flaw that allowed that kind of remote explosion?
They had to be designed or modified to explode. Which makes it a big question of where they came from. Lots of legitimate ways Israel could have done it, and a lot of ways that could involve violating laws and treaties.
Oh for sure Israel is handing out some commendations. I’m just curious how they managed it because there could be implications that arise. If it was a company helping them, there could be financial repercussions, if it was the CIA there could be political issues.

NYT reports they added explosives.

Some where, there’s a guy in a basement getting a handshake and plaque.
