Suspected Hamas Financier Found Dead in Lebanon Amid Regional Tensions

Mohammed Sarur, linked to both Hamas and Hezbollah, was discovered with multiple gunshot wounds in his home near Beirut.

Mohammed Sarur, accused of funneling millions from Iran to Hamas, was found dead in Beit Meri, Lebanon.
Sarur's death is suspected to be linked to his financial activities with Iran-backed groups and not a robbery, as money was found at the scene.
He was sanctioned by the US in 2019 for his alleged role in transferring funds between Iran's Revolutionary Guards and Hamas.
Tensions between Israel and Iran-backed groups like Hezbollah have escalated, with recent exchanges of fire and threats of retaliation.
Lebanese officials have not named suspects, but the nature of the killing suggests a targeted assassination rather than a random act.
