In response to media reports that a company registered in Bulgaria supplied pagers to the Lebanese organization Hezbollah, which were subsequently detonated in Lebanon and Syria, the State Agency for National Security (SANS) announced that no customs operations involving these goods have been carried out through Bulgaria. SANS added that no customs operations were conducted with the foreign companies mentioned in the media, reported BTA.

The Hungarian website Telex claims that a company registered in Bulgaria sold pagers to Hezbollah, which exploded simultaneously, killing dozens and injuring hundreds of the group's members. Earlier, the Hungarian government headed by Premier Viktor Orbán also denied the information that the company delivering the pagers under the Taiwanese brand Gold Apollo was registered in Hungary.
