A Japanese handheld radio manufacturer has distanced itself from walkie-talkies bearing its logo that exploded in Lebanon, saying it discontinued production of the devices a decade ago.
At least 20 people were killed and 450 injured after hundreds of walkie-talkies, some reportedly used by the armed group Hezbollah, exploded across Lebanon on Wednesday.
The devices, according to photos and video of the aftermath of the attack, appear to be IC-V82 transceivers made by Icom, an Osaka-based telecommunications manufacturer.
But Icom says it hasn’t produced or exported IC-V82s, nor the batteries needed to operate them, for 10 years.
It is the second Asian company to be embroiled in bombing incidents in Lebanon this week, after thousands of exploding pagers seemingly linked to Taiwanese firm Gold Apollo killed at least 12 people and injured more than 2,000.
Credit where it is due. Those genocidal motherfuckers are scary as hell.
EDIT: I understand the downvotes. Nobody, including myself, wants to say anything positive about the current Israeli regime or their industrial complex of death. Fuck those guys. That said, this op and the discipline it must have taken to keep it under wraps until just the right moment is impressive and VERY scary.
All true. The Mossad have been considered one of the most effective and efficient agencies in the world … and terrifying in their single-mindedness to eradicate every Muslim on the planet.
Has Israel/Mossad ever actually called for the eradication of all Muslims? I know Hamas, Iran, Hezbollah, Lebanon, Egypt, etc. have all called for and actively tried to eradicate Israel (and many of them have/do call for the eradication Jews in general), but I’m not aware of Israel doing the same.
No, but some/many Israelis have been calling for the killing of Arabs (and Christians) for years.
I guess Israel can spend some of its tax money on shit like this when Americans are paying for their military
