Hizbullah has set up a training facility in South America as part of its plan to launch terror attacks against the United States, the American Spanish-language Telemundo television network reported.
According to the report, the terror group is operating in a relatively secluded area on the Paraguay-Argentina-Brazil border, where it is collecting funds, brainwashing locals against the US and Israel and training the next generation of suicide bombers.
The activity is being conducted in forests near the city of Ciudad Del Este in Paraguay, which has a large Muslim population.
Washington fears that Hizbullah members are planning to infiltrate the US through its breached southern border with Mexico to carry out attacks.
It is suspected that Imad Mugniyah, the terror group’s elusive mastermind, is running the South America operation.
Paraguayan officials said Mossad and FBI agents are operating in the area to collect intelligence on Hizbullah’s intentions.
