Description
Residents of the Lebanese capital Beirut are "shocked" after hundreds of paging devices used by militant group Hezbollah members exploded across Lebanon Tuesday, killing at least nine people and wounding some 2,800.
"What we were watching [in Gaza], we witnessed here in Lebanon yesterday," says Hanan Ali Naser, a seamstress from south Lebanon. "We are already dead on the inside."
Hezbollah vowed to punish Israel after the deadly wave of explosions. There was no immediate comment from Israel on the incident, who had announced earlier that it was broadening the aims of the Israel-Hamas war. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
