Two men are to blame: President Salva Kiir and his former deputy Riek Machar.
Locked in a bitter power struggle, both are cynically stoking tensions
between ethnic groups that have lived peacefully together for decades. Both
men have assets and family abroad. If we hit Kiir and Machar where it hurts
                                                                   ^^

-- their wallets -- we can stop this nightmare from spiraling into genocide.
         ^^^^^^^

請問文章中的it代表的是?

以及wallets是指?

感謝

推 molaque:指前面講的：assets abroad.
推 apoka:hit somebody where it hurts (most) 嚴格來講就是慣用用法
→ apoka:不過那個where指的就是their wallets. wallets是錢包的意思
→ B95730101:喔喔！一知道it代表跟慣用法就懂了！
→ B95730101:還想wallet是指什麼，感謝！
