Breaking news, CNN has learned the hundreds of pagers, perhaps thousands, we don't have an exact number, that exploded in an apparently coordinated attack against members of Hezbollah in Lebanon today was the result of a joint operation between Israel's intelligence service, the Mossad, and the Israeli military.
The New York Times tonight also has new reporting.
Unnamed American and other officials tell the Times that Israel carried out the attack, quote, by hiding explosive material within a new batch of Taiwanese-made pagers imported into Lebanon.
Some, that's unquote, some of the officials said that the pagers were tampered with before they reached Lebanon and as little as one to two ounces of explosive material was implanted along with a switch that could be detonated remotely.
The Times also reports that the devices were programmed to beep for several seconds before exploding.
Now, these are photos of damaged pagers CNN has discovered online.
We can't geolocate the images, but they were published today.
They all appear to be from the same pager manufacturer mentioned in the Times reporting, and at least one appears to be the same model as well.
Leaders of Hezbollah vowed retribution today, and we warn you, the video of the explosions you're about to see is graphic.
In this one, a man can be seen in a supermarket.
In the lower left, you see him collapse on the ground.
The explosion was near his waist.
It knocked him down.
His bag is torn to shreds.
He clutches his stomach.
He's groaning in pain.
Then in another video shared on social media, another explosion, this time at a checkout, another person apparently knocked to the ground there, standing next to the person with the pager.
Lebanese health officials say thousands were injured and at least nine were killed, including at least one child.
Hezbollah, which the U.S.
has designated a foreign terrorist organization, blames Israel for the attack.
