Reuters, citing security sources and witnesses, said communications equipment used by Hezbollah exploded in the south of the country and in the southern suburbs of the capital.

Hezbollah’s Al-Manar TV channel reported that explosions blamed on walkie-talkie explosions occurred in several parts of Lebanon.

At least one of the explosions occurred near a funeral organized by Hezbollah for those killed yesterday, Reuters said.

A series of recent attacks also reportedly killed three people in Lebanon’s eastern Bekaa region, Reuters reported, citing the country’s state news agency.

Earlier in Lebanon on Tuesday, a pager explosion injured about 3,000 people and killed 12.

Lebanese Health Minister Firas Abiad said two children were among the dead.
