Israeli Airstrike Kills Yemen\u2019s Houthi Prime Minister and Several Senior Officials
\n…………….<\/p>\n
The Independent reported that Yemen\u2019s Houthi prime minister, Ahmad Ghaleb al-Rhawi, was killed in an Israeli airstrike targeting senior Houthi leaders. The Houthi-run news agency confirmed the deaths of several ministers, including the foreign minister and officials from justice, youth, sports, social affairs, and labor ministries. <\/p>\n
Additionally, some ministers sustained serious injuries, according to the office of Houthi leader Mahdi al-Mashat. Israel stated that the strike targeted key figures such as the Houthi chief of staff and defense minister, holding them responsible for military actions against Israel.<\/p>\n
An Israeli Defense Forces spokesperson described the operation as a swift, intelligence-led strike on a compound in the Sanaa region where top Houthi officials were gathered. Rahwi, who was prime minister for about a year, was seen largely as a ceremonial figure, with his deputy, Mohamed Moftah, now assigned to assume his duties. <\/p>\n
Since the Gaza conflict began in October 2023, the Houthis have launched attacks on Israeli vessels and missile strikes, prompting Israeli retaliatory airstrikes on Houthi-controlled areas. Mahdi al-Mashat reaffirmed the group\u2019s support for Gaza and its commitment to strengthening its military capabilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
