Iran's Ambassador to Lebanon Loses One Eye, Seriously Damages Other in Pager Explosion, New York Times

Mojtaba Amani, according to the publication, is being evacuated to Iran for treatment. It is noted that before the explosion, the pagers emitted a beep, which prompted many to bring the devices to their faces.

The attack was probably carried out by Israeli intelligence services, which planted explosives in about 5,000 pagers, Reuters reports. Of these, about 3,000 exploded. A senior source in Lebanon told the agency that the devices were planted by the Israeli spy service "at the production level." "The Mossad inserted a circuit board containing explosive material into the device, which receives a code. It is very difficult to detect by any means. Even with any device or scanner," the source said.

The day before, 4,000 people were injured in Lebanon, 11 of whom were killed as a result of pager explosions. Reuters writes that hundreds of members of the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah, including fighters and medics, were seriously injured due to explosions of pagers, which they use for secret communication.

That poll was taken in June, but I agree with the message.

The 135th Siege Battery, Royal Garrison Artillery, was a heavy howitzer unit of the British Army during World War I. Formed in May 1916, the battery was equipped with 8-inch howitzers, which were crucial for siege warfare. On August 25th, 1916, the battery was stationed at La Houssoye, France, during the Battle of the Somme. The 8-inch howitzers they used had a range of about 12,300 yards and fired 200-pound shells.

From his frame of reference the train is still, so he's using the same amount of energy.

“In particular, journalists were injured - the film crew of the Reuters agency. Citizens of Ukraine, America and Britain. An ordinary city hotel was destroyed by the Russian “Iskander”.” - Zelensky

The cops had AR15s, body armor, helmets, flash bang grenades, the works. They also outnumbered the shooter 376 to 1. The shooters vest had no armor plating.

The price tag, the letter adds pointedly, will be “expansive."

I read that as "expensive", with a country twang.

I don't understand why he wasn't charged with attempted murder. This is a bullshit defense.

Babcock said he went outside and "began shooting at the truck" to "disable" it...

Yes, killing the driver would do that.

No other details have been released, but it's likely CO2 poisoning due to poor ventilation.
