"Fourteen people whose nationalities are unknown have been wounded in Damascus and its countryside after pagers used by Hezbollah exploded," the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

A source close to Hezbollah told AFP that some of its members had been wounded in pager blasts in neighbouring Syria, without specifying how many.
