COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — Norwegian authorities have issued an international wanted notice for a man linked to a Bulgaria-based company that may have been involved in the dissemination of exploding electronic devices to the militant Hezbollah group that killed dozens and wounded thousands in Lebanon last week. Thursday’s notice was the latest step in a multi-country investigation trying to piece together how thousands of pagers and walkie-talkies were rigged to explode. Norwegein authorities have declined to name the man or provide his nationality.  Hezbollah and the Lebanese government have blamed Israel for the coordinated attacks, which killed at least 37 people and wounded more than 3,000, including civilians. Israel has neither confirmed nor denied involvement.
