Does it? Do you have any data on how many of these devices ended up in civilian hands?

Afaik they intercepted a shipment for Hamas members only. Do you have more information?

How many civilians there even use these pagers instead of mobile phones? Are there any?

Hamas is in Gaza, this attack was against Hezbollah and civilians in Lebanon.

Ignoring that it was Hezbollah, not Hamas, I would point out that many of Hezbollah members are civilians.

What? Hamas didn't have any of the pagers, Hezbollah did.

A year on, some Lebanese bystanders hurt in Israel’s pager attack still recovering... Over 3,400 were wounded when devices belonging to Hezbollah members exploded https://www.timesofisrael.com/a-year-on-some-lebanese-bystan...
