MOSCOW - Israel has created a shell company to manufacture explosive pagers that were then shipped to Lebanon, reported Sputnik
The New York Times reported, citing three intelligence officers, that by its appearance, BAC Consulting Kft. was a Hungary-based company that had a contract to manufacture the devices on behalf of the Taiwanese company Gold Apollo - while in fact, it was part of an Israeli front company.
At least two more front companies were created to mask the true identities of the people who created the pagers - Israeli intelligence officers.
At the same time, BAC Consulting Kft. had ordinary clients, for whom it produced pagers without explosives, the newspaper reported.
The explosive pagers began shipping to Lebanon in the summer of 2022, but production was then ramped up after Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah condemned the use of mobile phones for security reasons. - BERNAMA
