The University of Ottawa’s special adviser on anti-Semitism resigned following criticism for posts he made on social media praising a wave of deadly pager explosions in Lebanon.
Thousands of pagers used by Hezbollah members in Lebanon detonated simultaneously on Sept. 17, killing 12 people and injuring thousands. The following day, a second wave of attacks killed at least 20 people and wounded 450 others when walkie-talkies and other equipment used by Hezbollah exploded in multiple parts of Lebanon.
