New Zealand designates the entirety of Hezbollah as a terrorist entity. Since 2010, it has listed just the military wing.

Wellington also lists Yemen’s Houthi rebels, officially known as Ansar Allah, as a terrorist group.

New Zealand is the 30th country to list the entire Hezbollah organization as a terrorist entity.

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar praises the decision in a post on X.
