Iran’s Ambassador to Lebanon Is Injured in Pager Attack, State Media Reports

Iran’s ambassador to Lebanon, Mojtaba Amini, lost one eye and severely injured his other eye when a pager he was carrying exploded in a simultaneous wave of blasts targeting wireless electronic devices, according to two of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corps briefed on the attack.

The Guards , who had knowledge of the attacks and spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly, said Mr. Amini’s injuries were more serious than Iran initially reported and that he would be medevacked to Tehran for treatment.

Hossein Soleimani, the editor in chief of Mashregh, the main Revolutionary Guards news website, confirmed the extent of Mr. Amini’s injuries in a post on social media. Unfortunately the injuries sustained by Iran’s ambassador were extremely severe and in his eyes,” Mr. Soleimani wrote.

A video of Mr. Amini being transported to the hospital, published by Iranian news media outlets, shows him on a chaotic Beirut street with his eyes covered by bandages and the front of his white shirt covered in blood.

Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, condemned the attack in a call with Lebanon’s foreign minister and said Iran was ready to medevac the ambassador and other injured people to Iran for medical treatment if needed, according to a statement released by his office. He spoke to Mr. Amini’s wife in Beirut and wished the ambassador a speedy recovery, the statement said.

Narges Ghadirian, the ambassador’s wife, said in a post on social media earlier on Tuesday that her husband “is slightly injured but thank God he is all right and the danger has ed.”

Iranian media reported that two of the ambassador’s bodyguards were also injured because they were carrying pagers that exploded. Tasnim News agency, which is d with the Revolutionary Guards, said similar devices also exploded in Syria.

One of the Guards said the pagers, including the one used by the ambassador, beeped for about 10 seconds before exploding, prompting some victims to hold the devices close to their eyes and faces to check for a message. The two Guards said the pagers were used only by Hezbollah and operatives and not widely distributed among ordinary citizens.

The NYT reports that #Iran's regime's ambassador to #Lebanon Mojtaba Amani, who is essentially an #IRGCterrorists , lost one eye and severely injured his other eye when a pager he was carrying exploded today. Stands in stark contrast to the downplaying of his injuries by Tehran earlier in the day. He is being medevaced back to Tehran.

The God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob fights for Israel.

Exodus 3:6
Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
And Moses hid his face;

Exodus 14:14
The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.

The arab god cant fight for the arabs, thus showing that the God of Israel is superior

I think it’s the terror’s network mode of communication programmed to a frequency for his use. Unfortunately for them (him), Israel hacked into the frequency and the rest as they say is history.

Was he part of Hezbollah too? I’m beginning to believe the explosions were devices reaching their end of life. The media is fond of sensationalizing otherwise ordinary events. Poor civilians labeled terrorists by the Jewish media. Tufia! Whoever controls information controls power at the end of the day.

Whatever You do in this world, avoid picking a fight with people who are technologically more advanced than You are,because they can kill You whenever they want without even using nuclear weapons. Hezbollah stopped using smart phones and relied on low technology pagers and the Isrealis still got them.
