    So is this 14 in total or 14 from the walkie talkies alone?

    More unclear by the hour: what is the point? If Israel was to launch a major offensive shortly after the explosions, that would make sense. Seems like flexing more than a strategic element. Impressive flexing, but once it stops things will return to a new unpleasant normal.
