Assad\u2019s Drug Empire Is Funding Iranian-Backed Militias and Fueling Hamas<\/h3>\n

\"washington-post-logo\"After the Oct. 7 terrorist attack in Israel, several Hamas militants were\u00a0reportedly found to be high<\/a>\u00a0on the illegal drug Captagon, which surely fueled their murderous rampage. But the drug\u2019s threat is greater than just the boost it gives terrorists. The Captagon trade has become a key tool of influence for the Syrian regime and a massive source of income for the Iranian-backed militias now attacking U.S. troops.<\/p>\n

The highly addictive methlike drug<\/a>\u00a0Captagon typically comes in small white pills exported by the millions across the Middle East and beyond. Its\u00a0manufacturing is directly linked<\/a>\u00a0to the Syrian armed forces and the family of Syrian president Bashar al-Assad. In addition to being a dictator, war criminal and mass murderer, Assad can now add the title of drug kingpin to his r\u00e9sum\u00e9. Exporting\u00a0these drugs\u00a0<\/a>worldwide earns him several billion dollars a year. To get Captagon, named after a former brand of fenethylline,\u00a0into Europe,<\/a>\u00a0the Syrian regime\u00a0built a distribution network<\/a>\u00a0that includes cooperation with Lebanese Hezbollah and the\u00a0Italian mafia<\/a>.<\/p>\n
