Furthermore, he served as the Commander of the 4400 Unit for approximately 15 years. In recent years, he was responsible for financing Hezbollah and led economic initiatives to obtain funding for the Hezbollah terrorist activities, such as financial infrastructures and the financing of businessmen globally.
Additionally, Qasir was responsible for the transfer and transportation of funds from Iran and Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon, worth hundreds of millions of dollars each year.
The IDF is continuing to operate to degrade and dismantle Hezbollah’s terrorist infrastructure and capabilities, with an emphasis on weapons transfer.
