Washington enacts sanctions on Iran and Hezbollah-linked money laundering
The U.S. Department of the Treasury announced new sanctions targeting individuals and entities connected to the Iranian Revolutionary Guards and Hezbollah in Lebanon, as part of efforts to tighten financial pressure on Tehran and its allies. The sanctions included ten individuals who form a network responsible for transferring and moving hundreds of millions of dollars on behalf of Hezbollah. This network relies on intermediaries traveling via commercial flights between Lebanon, Turkey, the UAE, and Iran to carry cash, providing Hezbollah with an alternative channel outside the official financial system and hindering efforts to circumvent international sanctions. Additionally, Washington re-listed Hezbollah on the sanctions list, reaffirming that the group employs innovative funding methods—including oil smuggling, illegal shipping, and the sale of goods—to ensure a steady flow of funds and support for its activities.
