Israel appears to be preparing for a ground invasion of southern Lebanon as an expansion of its war on Gaza. Following deadly Israeli attacks that blew up walkie-talkies and pagers across Lebanon this week, killing at least 37 people and wounding around 3,000, Israeli officials have pledged to ramp up their campaign against Hezbollah. Hezbollah characterized the devastating pager explosions as a "declaration of war." In Beirut, we hear from journalist Rania Abouzeid about the aftereffects of the attack and the prospects of war on the Lebanese front. "There is certainly a sense of heightened anxiety as people wonder what else, what other devices in their vicinity, may explode," she says.
