Taiwan prosecutors question four over exploding pagers

Amidst growing tensions between Israel and Hezbollah, the detonation of pagers in Lebanon has sparked an intense investigation involving Taiwan. According to Taiwan prosecutors, four individuals have been questioned as witnesses in connection to the pager explosions, which remain a mystery in terms of weaponization and remote detonation.

Although Gold Apollo, a Taiwan-based company, denied manufacturing the devices used in the attack, the investigation has extended to Bulgaria, Norway, and Romania. With the involvement of multiple countries, the hunt for answers continues as Taiwan’s government asserts that the pagers were not made in Taiwan.

As the probe progresses, the Shilin District Prosecutors Office in Taipei has been leading the charge, questioning individuals associated with Gold Apollo including the company’s president. Meanwhile, reports suggest that Hezbollah received the pagers from Iran, further complicating the situation.

With Israel neither confirming nor denying involvement and Mossad allegedly operating in Iran, the circumstances surrounding the pager detonations remain shrouded in secrecy.

Despite the ongoing investigation, key players in the case have remained tight-lipped, leaving the public eager for more answers.
