One member of the Iranian-backed militia received a new pager on Monday that exploded the next day while it was still in its box.

Hezbollah distributed new Gold Apollo pagers, believing them to be safe, only to have them explode and kill 37 people. The attacks, suspected to be orchestrated by Israel, also injured more than 3,000.

Hezbollah admits Israel dealt a severe blow with exploding pagers and walkie talkies, but neither side seems to heed U.S. calls to avoid a wider war.
