Shelagh Fogarty hears from caller Elliot, who argues that Israel is acting with 'impunity' following attacks in Lebanon over the past two days.

Walkie-talkies have exploded in Lebanon's capital of Beirut in a second day of blasts against Hezbollah.

A security source said at least one of the blasts heard took place near a funeral organised by Hezbollah for four of those killed the previous day.

The funeral was just getting under way in Dahiyeh, a southern suburb of Beirut, when people started running - with early reports suggesting another device had exploded.

At least three people have died in the latest explosions, with hundreds left injured, the Lebanese state news agency said.

It comes after tiny amounts of explosives were used to detonate thousands of pagers on Tuesday, killing at least 12 people, including two children, an eight-year-old girl and an 11-year-old boy.
