A Taiwanese company claims that the Hezbollah pagers that exploded were manufactured in Hungary.

In Lebanon and Syria, hundreds of pagers that exploded in an apparent operation targeting Hezbollah members bore the brand of a Taiwanese company. However, the firm's chair stated Wednesday that another company in Budapest manufactured the devices.

At least 12 people were killed and nearly 3,000 were injured in near-simultaneous pager detonations used by Hezbollah terror group members on Tuesday.

Gold Apollo, a Taiwanese pager firm, announced that it had granted a license to BAC Consulting KFT, a Hungarian-based company, to use its AR-924 brand of pager, and clarified that it was not involved in the production process.

The cooperation agreement allows BAC to use our brand trademark for product sales in designated regions, but BAC is solely responsible for the design and manufacturing of the products.

Hsu Ching-kuang, CEO of Gold Apollo chair, revealed Wednesday that his company has been in a licensing agreement with BAC for three years, but he did not present any proof of the contract.

Around 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday, pagers in Lebanon began heating up and exploding, with the blasts occurring in areas where Hezbollah has a strong presence, particularly in southern Beirut and the Beqaa region of eastern Lebanon, as well as in Damascus, according to Lebanese security officials and a Hezbollah official.

During a press conference on Wednesday morning, Lebanon Health Minister Firas Abiad stated that numerous injured individuals had severe eye injuries, while some had limbs removed.

Israel was accused by Hezbollah and the Lebanese government of carrying out a complex remote attack, but the Israeli government has remained silent.

There is evidence that a complex supply chain breach occurred, resulting in the surreptitious insertion of explosive materials into pagers before they were distributed and utilized.

It was unclear if non-Hezbollah members also carried any of the pagers that exploded, although it seemed that many of the pagers belonged to Hezbollah members.

Hezbollah, who has accused Israel, announced on Wednesday morning that it will continue its usual attacks against Israel, as part of its support for Hamas and the Palestinians in Gaza.

On Tuesday, both Matt Miller of the U.S. State Department and Karine Jean-Pierre of the White House stated that the U.S. had no involvement in the incident and was not aware of it until after the explosions occurred.
