Hezbollah starts a new campaign with a purpose to contain the impact of the financial crunch

Hezbollah is facing a severe financial crunch in the latest period .This is reflected in many of its institutions that are strongly tied to the interests of large segments of the Shiite community in Lebanon. It is reported that the Hezbollah leaders launched a campaign weeks ago to contain the effects of this financial crisis.
The objective was to minimize negative reactions and contain the state of unrest among thousands of families that are supported by Hezbollah’s institutions. The decline in services provided by Hezbollah to its popular base comes amid the successive blows that it has incurred on the battlefields in Syria.

Hezbollah cut the compensation awarded to the families of its combat soldiers to about $25,000 after it had previously paid nearly $50,000, or even bought houses for families of dead fighters in case they were married before being dispatched to Syria.
