In First, Israel Seizes Crypto Wallets Tied to Iran’s Quds Force, Hezbollah

(JNS) Israel has for the first time seized cryptocurrency wallets tied to Iran’s Quds Force and Lebanon-based Hezbollah terror proxy, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant revealed.

The “extensive and precedent-setting” effort over the past week resulted in the confiscation of millions of dollars worth of digital currency earmarked for terrorism, Gallant said.

The Quds Force is the branch of Tehran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps responsible for external operations.

“Whoever finances terror or maintains economic ties to terror groups are targets, just like those directing terrorism,” Gallant said.
