MIT intercepted a shipment of explosive-laced pagers at Istanbul Airport, foiling a Mossad-linked plot aimed at Lebanon. The devices matched those used in deadly blasts last year that killed dozens and injured thousands.
MIT (Turkey’s National Intelligence Organization) thwarted a dangerous operation linked to Mossad after detecting suspicious cargo at Istanbul Airport. The shipment, coming from Hong Kong just two days before planned attacks, contained 1,300 pagers and 710 chargers, identical to the ones used in last year’s deadly explosions in Lebanon. These devices were rigged with hidden explosives and were set to be sent to Lebanon on September 27.
The previous attacks took place on September 17 and 18 last year, when pagers and radios exploded almost simultaneously in Lebanon. The initial blasts killed 12 people, including two children, and injured around 2,800 individuals, with 300 seriously hurt. The following day, another explosion killed 25 more and wounded over 450.
Investigations suggested that Mossad orchestrated the attacks by secretly accessing and rigging the pagers intended for Hezbollah. The Taiwan-based company Gold Apollo, which manufactured the devices, pointed to its Hungarian partner Bac Consulting KFT as responsible. However, it was later claimed that Bac Consulting KFT was actually a front company established by Israel to carry out covert operations.
