Lebanon is on edge after thousands of electronic devices exploded across two days
"We don’t know if we can stay next to our laptops, our phones," a Lebanese woman tells the BBC
On Tuesday, thousands of pagers exploded, before hundreds of walkie-talkies did the same on Wednesday - multiple sources say Israel's Mossad spy agency was targeting Hezbollah members
The walkie-talkie blasts killed 20 and injured at least 450; the pager explosions killed 12 and injured more than 2,000
Israel has not commented on the blasts, but on Wednesday, Israel's Defence Minister Yoav Gallant announced "a new phase in the war"
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah is due to give a televised speech later.
