Iran International ^ | 4-24-26

Posted on 04/24/2026 4:48:58 AM PDT by nuconvert

The US State Department said it is offering a reward of up to $10 million for information on Hashim Finyan Rahim al-Saraji, leader of the Iran-aligned militia Kata’ib Sayyid al-Shuhada (KSS).

In a notice issued through its Rewards for Justice program, the department said al-Saraji, also known as Abu Ala al-Wala’i, heads the group, which it accused of attacks on US personnel and facilities in Iraq and Syria, as well as violence against Iraqi civilians.

The notice said individuals providing information could be eligible for relocation and financial compensation.

Help stop the violence and attacks against U.S. diplomatic facilities and innocent civilians in Iraq.

Rewards for Justice (RFJ) is the U.S. Department of State’s premier national security rewards program. It was established by the 1984 Act to Combat International Terrorism, Public Law 98-533 (codified at 22 U.S.C. § 2708) and is administered by the Bureau of Diplomatic Security. The mission of RFJ is to offer rewards for information that protects American lives and furthers U.S. national security objectives. Potential tipsters can learn more about the program as well as how to submit tips at the official RFJ website: www.RewardsForJustice.net.

Since 1984, Congress has expanded the RFJ’s statutory authorities to offer rewards for information in the following categories:

Terrorism

Leads to the arrest or conviction of anyone who plans, commits, aids, or attempts international terrorist acts against U.S. persons or property in the United States or abroad;
Prevents such acts from occurring in the first place;
Identifies or locates a key terrorist leader;
Disrupts the financial mechanisms of foreign terrorist organizations. This includes the disruption of kidnapping networks and kidnapping events that financially support such organizations.

Foreign Interference in U.S. Elections
For information that:

Leads to the identification or location of any foreign person who knowingly engaged or is engaging in U.S. election interference, including activity that violates federal criminal, voting rights, or campaign finance law, or such activity that is performed by any person acting as an agent of or on behalf of, or in coordination with, a foreign government or criminal enterprise;
Leads to the prevention, frustration, or favorable resolution of an act of foreign interference in U.S. elections.
Malicious Cyber Activity
For information that:

Identifies or locates any individual who, while acting at the direction or under the control of a foreign government, aids or abets a violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (“CFAA”), 18 U.S.C. § 1030. This includes foreign election interference.

North Korea
For information that:

Disrupts the financial mechanisms of persons or entities engaged in certain activities supporting the North Korean regime;
Identifies or locates any individual who, while acting at the direction or under the control of the North Korean government, aids or abets a violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (“CFAA”), 18 U.S.C. § 1030. This includes cyber-attacks and intrusions on U.S. government systems.
