The Chinese government has confirmed that no parts of the island were used in the hundreds of pagers used by the armed party Lebanon that exploded in Lebanon earlier this week.
The comments come after Chinese firm Gold Apollo claimed to not produce the tools used in the assault.
The Lebanese government says 12 folks, including two children, were killed and almost 3, 000 injured in the blasts on Tuesday.
The event, along with another invasion involving exploding walkie-talkies, was blamed on Israel and set off a political storm in the Middle East.
” The parts for Hezbollah’s pagers were not produced by us”, Taiwan’s business secretary Kuo Jyh-huei told reporters on Friday.
He added that a legal research is already being conducted.
” I want to reveal the truth, because Taiwan has previously exported this particular voicemail model”, Taiwan international secretary, Lin Chia-lung said.
Hsu Ching-Kuang, the company’s CEO, earlier this month, denied that his company had any involvement in the attacks.
He claimed that he gave a firm in Hungary, called BAC Consulting, permission to use the brand” Gold Apollo” on their own websites.
The BBC’s attempts to contact BAC have so far been fruitless. CEO of it, Cristiana Bársony-Arcidiacono, told NBC in the US that she had no knowledge of the pagers and that her business had not produced the pages.
According to the Hungarian government, BAC has no “factory or functional site” there.
However, an article in the New York Times claimed that Israeli intelligence officials were employed by BAC as a barrel business.
In another round of storms on Wednesday, exploding walkie-talkies killed 20 people and injured at least 450, Lebanon’s health department said.
Icom, a Chinese company of handheld radios, has distanced itself from the walkie-talkies with its logo, claiming to have stopped producing the devices ten years ago.
Iran-backed Hezbollah has blamed Israel for what it called” this criminal aggression” and vowed that it would get” just retribution”.
The Israeli army has not commented on the situation.
Since the Gaza fight broke out in October, the two parties have engaged in cross-border fighting.
The difficulty in identifying the makers of the devices has highlighted how complicated the global electronics supply chain has become.
