Rewards for Justice is offering a reward of up to $7 million for information on Salman Raouf Salman, also known as Samuel Salman El Reda and Salman Remal. Salman directs and supports Hizballah’s terrorist activities in the Western Hemisphere. A leader in Hizballah’s External Security Organization (ESO), Salman has also been involved in plots worldwide. The ESO is the Hizballah element responsible for the planning, coordination, and execution of terrorist attacks outside Lebanon. The attacks have primarily targeted Israelis and Americans.

Salman is assessed to have served as the on-the-ground coordinator for the July 18, 1994 bombing of the Argentine Jewish Mutual Aid Society, a Jewish community center in Buenos Aires. The explosion from a vehicle-borne improvised explosive device killed 85 people and injured more than 300.

On July 19, 2019, the U.S. Department of the Treasury designated Salman as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist pursuant to Executive Order 13224, as amended. As a result of this designation, among other consequences, all property and interests in property of Salman that are subject to U.S. jurisdiction are blocked, and U.S. persons are generally prohibited from engaging in any transactions with Salman. In addition, it is a crime to knowingly provide, or attempt or conspire to provide, material support or resources to Hizballah, a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization.
