Original Note:
NNN. Matthews correctly expresses that membership in Hisbollah is not per se sufficient to qualify as a legitimate target, but that continuous combat function or direct participation in hostilities are required. The concrete evaluation is a matter of dispute and opinion. https://www.justsecurity.org/100193/law-war-exploding-pagers-lebanon/ https://lieber.westpoint.edu/exploding-pagers-law/
