US imposes fresh sanctions on Hezbollah, citing group's links to Iran government
The US re-designated Hezbollah as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist, emphasizing its ties to the Iranian government and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force. This move aims to increase pressure on Hezbollah and disrupt its financial networks, with the Treasury Department designating 10 individuals for smuggling cash for the group. The sanctions reflect ongoing US efforts to counter Iran's influence.
