Troops locate terror-linked funds from West Bank currency exchanges tied to Iran and Turkey, arresting suspects and shutting businesses in raids that leave one dead and nine injured; operation part of broader financial crackdown since October 7 war
Israeli security forces launched a West Bank operation Tuesday targeting currency exchange businesses suspected of funneling terror funds, seizing approximately 7.5 million shekels ($2 million) in cash and assets.
The operation follows extensive planning by the IDF’s Central Command and West Bank divisions, focusing on intercepting funds used to finance terror activity. According to the military, most of the seized money originated from Turkey and Iran and was intended to support terror attacks in the West Bank and other areas.
In addition to cash, forces confiscated cryptocurrency (including Bitcoin), jewelry and other tools allegedly used by currency exchangers to transfer funds to terror networks.
