Hezbollah, facing reduced financial support from Iran, is increasingly turning to drug trafficking in Venezuela to fund its operations. Sources report that hundreds of Hezbollah commanders have relocated to Latin America, joining thousands of operatives already established in Venezuela. The group is now heavily involved in the trade of 'black cocaine,' generating significant revenue that supports its global activities while also benefiting the Venezuelan regime. United States officials have acknowledged Hezbollah's growing presence and influence in the region, describing Venezuela as a strategic hub for the group. Meanwhile, Iranian leaders continue to publicly support Venezuela, highlighting the deepening ideological and financial partnership between the two countries.
