Electronic device explosions in Lebanon will be met with "just retribution," Iran's president Masoud Pezeshkian has said.

Pager blasts killed 12 and injured more than 2,000 on Tuesday before walkie-talkies detonated on Wednesday, killing 20 and injuring at least 450.

The attacks targeted members of Hezbollah, the Islamist group linked to Tehran.

Israel has not commented on the blasts that have been linked to its Mossad spy agency, but defense minister Yoav Gallant declared on Wednesday "a new phase in the war" in the Middle East.

Without mentioning Israel, Pezeshkian posted on X that he condemned "the treacherous mass assassination carried out by the terrorist entity through the bombing of communication devices."

"God is Almighty and Avenging, and the criminal will surely receive just retribution," the post added, according to a translation.
