WASHINGTON: The United States on Wednesday added a host of Lebanese individuals and entities it said were linked to the Martyrs Foundation to its designated "global terrorists" lists, according to a notice on the US Treasury Department's website.

US officials have previously targeted the Martyrs Foundation, an organization the department has said channels financial support to several militant groups, including Hezbollah.
