Lebanon blames Mossad for murder of terrorist financier

The Washington Post reported last week:

A Lebanese man sanctioned by the U.S. for his alleged links with the Palestinian group Hamas was found dead Wednesday after he went missing for a week, Lebanese state media and judicial officials said.

Mohammad Srour, 57, was sanctioned by the U.S. in August 2019 for giving “financial, material, technological support, financial or other services” to Hamas and for his affiliation with Hezbollah. He was accused of transferring tens of millions of dollars annually from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to Hamas’ military wing, the Qassam Brigades, which is currently at war with Israel’s military in Gaza.

Lebanese judicial officials say Srour worked for Hezbollah’s financial arm.

Lebanese authorities now blame the Mossad:

A Lebanese minister and two senior officials said preliminary findings suggest Israel's Mossad spy agency was behind the killing of a U.S.-sanctioned Lebanese man accused of sending Iranian money to Hamas.

Interior Minister Bassam Mawlawi told Al-Jadeed TV late Sunday that, "according to the data we have so far, (the killing) was carried out by intelligence services".

Asked whether he was referring to Mossad, Mawlawi confirmed.

Al Mayadeen, a Hezbollah mouthpiece, says that a woman lured Srour to her villa to give her funds from a money transfer, from which he was abducted, allegedly tortured and then shot several times.

Whether it was the Mossad or not, this will give any other Hezbollah and Hamas financiers second thoughts.
