We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

In short:

A day after exploding pagers caused mass casualties in Lebanon, walkie-talkies used by members of the Hezbollah militant group detonated.

The Lebanese health ministry said 20 people were killed and hundreds were injured.

What's next?

Israel has not commented on the blasts, but Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said it was entering a "new phase" of war focused on the country's northern border with Lebanon.

Oh, it's a war crime. Hence Israel's No Comment on the situation. (not that anyone would suggest they did it...)
