Kremlin: Lebanon pager explosions risk igniting tensions in 'explosive' region

The Kremlin warned on Wednesday that a deadly wave of blasts targeting pagers used by Hezbollah in Lebanon risks igniting tensions in an "explosive" region.

"What has happened, whatever it is, is certainly leading to an escalation of tensions. The region itself is in an explosive situation... And every incident like this has the potential to be a trigger," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
