The US Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has imposed sanctions on several entities and individuals linked to a Hezbollah financing network tied to the family of the late general secretary Hassan Nasrallah. The move aims to disrupt the group's ability to evade sanctions and finance its operations. The targeted entities include the Lebanese United Group, Securol Glass Curtains, and Ravee SARL, as well as five individuals. This crackdown is part of a broader effort to combat terrorist financing and money laundering, using financial sanctions to counter illicit activities and protect national security, including anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing measures.
