Israel seizes 187 crypto wallets allegedly linked to Iran

Israel’s Ministry of Defense ordered the seizure of 187 crypto wallets claimed to have ties to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The wallets reportedly received $1.5 billion in funds. The government document signed by the Minister of Defense authorized the seizure, stating that the wallets were connected to illicit activities and posed a national security threat. The action aims to disrupt Iran’s funding networks and prevent the transfer of funds to terrorist organizations.
