The Lebanese health ministry reports that 20 people have been killed and over 450 injured in a new round of explosions involving walkie-talkie devices. Hezbollah is blaming Israel, while Israel has declined to comment. Azmi Hassan, a fellow at the Malaysia National Council of Professors, says the blasts increase the potential for the situation to escalate into an all-out war. He adds that it has also negatively impacted the Gaza ceasefire negotiations.
