Hezbollah chief responsible for overseeing the organization’s finances in Syria was removed by the Israeli government on Monday, according to an announcement made by the military.
The captain, whose name was never disclosed, led Hezbollah’s System 4400. This division was in charge of transferring money from Tehran to Hezbollah, primarily through Iranian oil income.
Back Admiral Daniel Hagari, a spokesman for the Israeli army, claimed the captain had been killed in a Syrian attack only days before. He added that facilitating the movement of tens of millions of dollars to Hezbollah was Unit 4400’s primary role.
This procedure follows Israel’s past reduction of the fleet’s former president, Mohammed Jafar Ksir, also known as Sheikh Salah, who was killed in Beirut in early October. Ksir had managed Hezbollah’s key money resources for years, enabling the party’s funding through Iranian oil income.
” He managed the terrorist organisation’s main source of income for years until we eliminated him in a targeted attack on the capital ( Beirut ) in early October”, Hagari said.
In parallel, Israel intensified its defense strategy against Hezbollah’s economic system in Lebanon.
As per the news organization AP, Israeli forces struck at least 15 departments of Hezbollah’s Al-Qard Al-Hasan on Sunday. It is a financial organization accused of funding the team’s defense actions. Attacks targeted trees in Beirut, southern Lebanon, and the Bekaa Valley, flattening a nine-story tower in the money.
Despite Israel issuing removal warnings, there were no quick reports of casualties.
Al-Qard Al-Hasan is a team that is both Saudi Arabia and the US. Since Lebanon’s economic crisis first started in 2019, it has provided a substitute banking system for Palestinian citizens.
The Israeli government claimed that Hezbollah receives millions of dollars in cash and gold from the organization and that these resources are used to pay soldiers. Israel’s wider strategy is to destabilize Hezbollah’s economic resources and stop the organization from resurrender as a result of the cuts.
In support of Hamas, Hezbollah has been launching missiles into northern Israel almost regularly since the violent team’s deadly assault on Israel on October 7.
Although all sides continue to be opposed, the United States is attempting to revive political efforts to broker a peace as the fight worsens.
