Fox News
The U.S. Treasury Department imposed terrorism-related sanctions on a network consisting of seven individuals and businesses across Lebanon and South America.
"Today’s action underscores the U.S. government’s commitment to pursuing Hezbollah operatives and financiers no matter their location," said Brian Nelson, the Treasury's under-secretary for terrorism and financial intelligence, in a statement.
The Iran-backed group is designated a "foreign terrorist organization," and Washington also claims that the group has been involved in drug trafficking in Latin America to generate revenue.
