Israel targeted branches of a Hezbollah-run financial institution across Lebanon on Sunday, but there are not believed to be any casualties.
Israeli airstrikes targeted nearly a dozen branches of a Hezbollah-run financial institution that the IDF says helps to fund terror operations.
The branches of Al-Qard Al-Hassan, or “the benevolent loan”, were located across southern Lebanon and in the capital of Beirut. While some individuals maintain their savings with the institution, Israel says Hezbollah uses it to store hundreds of millions of dollars.
Israel issued evacuation warnings ahead of the airstrikes, and there have been no reports of casualties.
“Overnight, the IAF conducted a series of targeted, intelligence-based strikes against dozens of facilities and sites used by the Hezbollah terrorist organization to finance its terrorist activities against the State of Israel.
