Three grams of explosive on a custom board, that they can detonate at will.

Kinda terrifying actually.

    I feel like this should unironically be a war crime. The potential for collateral is ridiculously high.

    Edit: I’m amazed at how successfully this is being spun as a highly-targeted, high-precision attack with no collateral when it’s pretty much the opposite. You can’t control what they do with the pagers after they get them. Ffs there were kids killed.

      Imagine if one of those pagers had been on a plane…

          I dunno, did you see the picture of what happened to the pager that was on the table? I could see that going through a few mm of aluminium.

              If you’re sitting in a window seat your pocket is pretty much against the hull.

          It may not take it down but it would likely not end well. Also an ounce of certain explosives is a lot more destructive than others.
