Funeral-goers mourn girl killed in Lebanon pager blasts

Relatives mourn 10-year-old Fatima Abdallah, who was killed after hundreds of paging devices exploded in a deadly wave across Lebanon.

At least 37 people died, and more than 2,900 others were wounded as pagers and walkie-talkies used by Hezbollah exploded in the unprecedented attacks.

The blasts, spanning two days, have dealt a major blow to the Iran-backed militant group, which blamed its arch-foe Israel for the attacks on its communication systems and vowed revenge.
