Israel intensified its attacks in Lebanon by targeting a branch of the Hezbollah-affiliated Al-Qard Al-Hassan financial institution in Beirut. Al-Qard Al-Hassan offers interest-free loans and serves people of all religious communities. Israel claims it is trying to destroy Hezbollah’s capacity to operate, as the US Treasury Department has accused the institution of being used as a cover for Hezbollah’s financial activities. These attacks are seen as symbolic and part of a broader campaign of political and psychological warfare against Hezbollah.
