Israel presumably conducting a long-burn supply chain attack to plant explosives into hundreds of pagers later used by Hezbollah members is absolutely wild.

According to Wikipedia (was looking for market numbers):

“pagers continue to be used by some emergency services and public safety personnel, because modern pager systems' coverage overlap, combined with use of satellite communications, can make paging systems more reliable than terrestrial based cellular networks in some cases, including during natural and human-made disasters. This resilience has led public safety agencies to adopt pagers over cellular and other commercial services for critical messaging.”
