"Green Without Borders" is an association that was established by Hezbollah in order to conduct operations under cover in the contact area with Israel.
Following a joint operation of the IDF Intelligence Branch the National Bureau for Counter Terror Financing (NBCTF) in the Ministry of Defense, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant designated today the "Green Without Borders" association as a terrorist organization.
This designation coincides with the outlawing of this association in the United States due to it being an entity designed to camouflage operations of the Hezbollah terrorist organization.
The "Green Without Borders" association operates under the cover of an organization whose goal is nature conservation, tree planting and forestation, bu2t in practice the association is used to promote Hezbollah's war readiness, as well as terrorist attacks along the border with Israel.
The association's activities include the establishment of observation and alert outposts all along the "Blue Line" with Israel and also restricting UNIFIL's freedom of movement around its outposts.
This activity constitutes a further blatant violation of UNSC Resolution 1701 and a provocation by Hezbollah of Israeli sovereignty.
The Israeli designation by the defense minister will assist in monitoring the association's financial-business operations with international aspects and in working to thwart the same.
