Explosions in Lebanon interest Russian special services

Moscow, Sep 20 (Prensa Latina) Explosions of communication devices in Lebanon are a subject of interest for Russian special services in doing their work, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.

Asked whether Moscow had discussed what happened in Lebanon with regional players, Peskov replied: “No, there were no discussions so far,” he stressed.

On September 17 and 18, numerous explosions of communication devices took place in Lebanon. On the first day, numerous devices detonated almost simultaneously in different parts of the country.

According to the country’s Ministry of Health, 12 people died as a result of the emergency, including two children, and more than 2,800 injured were taken to hospitals.

The following day, portable communicators, telephones, as well as devices powered by solar panels and lithium-ion batteries exploded in several areas of Lebanon. The second attack killed 25 people and wounded 608.
