Seems more like globalism is to blame. They were from a Taiwanese company but manufactured in Hungary.
Guessing the source of the pagers didn't matter at all and Israel probably intercepted a shipment to plant bombs in them themselves. Lithium batteries can ignite, but they don't just explode like that. There were bombs put in those pagers, be it by Israel or whoever else, coordinated as a targeted operation.
These pagers don't use lithium battery.
So what other kind of battery would a pager be using that might explode if not lithium? Hydrogen cell?
(CH~2~N~2~O~2~)~3~
Not a battery but sure, that's what I was suggesting.
My point is that the lithium battery angle is a diversion and isn't even relevant.
Agreed
