Human Rights lawyer: Exploding electronic devices are legal weapons only under special circumstances

Human Rights lawyer Alexander Schwarz from the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights (ECCHR) in Berlin cautions that according to international law, communications devices that were recently made to explode in Lebanon, killing or injuring thousands of people thought to be members of the militant Islamic group Hezbollah, may only be used as weapons of war under highly controlled circumstances.
