The Taiwanese company in the news regarding the exploding tweeters points to a Budapest company.
Thousands of Hezbollah members were injured and twelve have been killed so far in a series of mass explosions, during which the beepers they were carrying exploded. Many had their eyes or faces injured, others had their hands or fingers torn off.
After the incident of an unprecedented scale, the threads related to the tweeters first led to Taiwan.
Taiwan's Gold Apollo said that the tweeters had their brand name, but they only allowed it because the devices
it was manufactured by another Hungarian company based in Budapest.
They also stated that, according to the agreement, the concerned Hungarian limited liability company was authorized to use their branding for product sales in the designated regions, but according to them, the design and production of the products is solely the responsibility of the Hungarian company.
According to newspaper information, the threads lead to a company based in Zugló, whose owner is a Hungarian-Italian woman from Újpest.
According to leaked, unconfirmed reports, 10-20 grams of explosives and a mini detonator were placed in the beepers during the delivery.
According to the owner of the Budapest company, they did not manufacture the beepers that blew up thousands of Hezbollah members in Lebanon, they only acted as intermediaries.
After that, the owner of the named Hungarian company also spoke on the matter: Cristiana Bársony-Arcidiacono, CEO of BAC Consulting, confirmed to NBC News that her company cooperated with Gold Apollo, but when asked about the beeps and explosions, she said:
"I don't make beepers. I'm just the mediator. I think you misunderstood.”
