The Israeli army attacked a bank in the southern area of Lebanon's capital Beirut.
Israeli forces have targeted Hezbollah-linked banks in Lebanon overnight. The Israeli Defense Force (IDF) has confirmed this. According to the Times of Israel, the al-Qard al-Hassan Association provides interest-free loans to Hezbollah members. It has 31 branches throughout Lebanon. Information about how many of these branches have been attacked is not yet available.
The IDF said they were targeting bank branches to prevent Hezbollah from providing war funding. The IDF claimed that al-Qard al-Hassan had access to a large amount of money that Hezbollah used against Israel.
An Israeli intelligence official said al-Qard al-Hassan's money was used by Hezbollah to pay salaries to its fighters. Attack on this is a big incident. This will have a deep impact on Hezbollah's economy. He said that this bank has Hezbollah's money but it does not handle all the money.
