Today's Video Focus: The UK has added Lebanon's entire Hezbollah movement to its blacklist of
what it terms terrorist organisations.
And now it’s freezing Hezbollah’s assets, and will prosecute anyone in
the UK who continues to have accounts or financial services connected to
the group.
It was in March last year that the British government said it could no
longer distinguish between the political and the military wings of
Hezbollah.
But it took until this week before it announced it was going after the
group’s finances.
The United States has welcomed the decision, saying it had long been
seeking such a move from its European allies.
But why now? Is Iran the real target?
