Iran Hezbollah $200 million transfer

Hezbollah got a reported $200 MILLION from Iran last month, and the plan for it is aid to Lebanese families uprooted by the fighting with Israel. The catch: getting that much physical cash where it needed to go was risky enough that intermediaries reportedly took a 20% cut just for handling the move. From there Hezbollah wants to start with $3,000 per family, and around 50,000 families could be at the front of that line. So no, the pressure hasn't shut the Iran-Hezbollah money channel down.
