BEIRUT, Feb 28 (Reuters) - Lebanon seized $2.5 million in cash from a man arriving from Turkey, the finance ministry said, with three sources saying the money was destined for militant group Hezbollah.
One of the sources said it was the first time such a seizure had been made. There was no immediate comment from Hezbollah.
"The detainee and the seized funds will be handed over to the investigation division at the General Directorate of General Security," Lebanon's finance ministry said in a statement, without making a reference to Hezbollah.
NEWSRAEL: Reuters forgot to mention that this is the first public proof that Erdogan's Turkey is helping not only Hamas which, like Turkey, is Muslim Brotherhood, but also Hezbollah which is an Iranian proxy.
What dirty game is Turkey playing?
