But they can impossibly actually know who physically has the pager next to them, when they're triggering them. This is the "failing to verify each target" part.

That's not a very realistic standard for a wartime covert operation.

[embedding-shape]

Maybe that's the wrong way to think about it? Maybe these "wartime covert operations" need to read up on Human Rights and figure out a way to work within it?

[baggy_trough]

Sounds like a unilateral disarmament, which is not how to win a war. Hamas and the like have no concern with human rights of course.

Is this a SoP in wartime?

I mean in the case in Lebanon they knew. They sold those pagers to Hezbollah.
