The Foreign Office has urged 'calm heads and de-escalation' after deadly pager explosions in Lebanon and Syria. At least nine people were killed and thousands wounded in what appeared to be a sophisticated, remote attack. The Foreign Office is closely monitoring the situation and working with partners in the region. Tensions have been rising between Lebanon and Israel, with clashes between Hezbollah and Israeli forces. Lufthansa has suspended flights to Tel Aviv and Tehran in response to the explosions.
