Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) said her House office was “tagged with blood-splattered signs accusing [her] of supporting terrorism” after she condemned Israel for a series of explosions across Lebanon involving pagers that targeted members of militant group Hezbollah.
“Yesterday my House office was tagged with blood-splattered signs accusing me of supporting terrorism after I questioned the pager operation, which clearly runs counter to US policy,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote Friday in a post on the social platform X.
“They must live under a rock to not know I don’t take well to bullies,” she added in.
On Wednesday, Ocasio-Cortez posted on X about the series of explosions in pagers in Lebanon.
Explosives were apparently hidden in pagers purchased by members of Hezbollah and then triggered, The New York Times reported. The pagers exploded in Beirut and southern Lebanon, reportedly killing 12 people, including two children, and wounding some 2,800 others.
Israel has not claimed responsibility for the attack but is widely thought to have carried it out.
