Yemen's Houthis said on Thursday that their Chief of Staff Muhammad Abd Al-Karim al-Ghamari, one of the most senior military officials of the group, was killed "while fulfilling his duties".⁣ ⁣ Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz said on Thursday that Ghamari was attacked in an Israeli strike. "We will do the same against any threat in the future as well", he added.⁣ ⁣ Without directly blaming Israel for his killing, Houthis said that the conflict with Israel had not ended. Israel will "receive its deterrent punishment for the crimes it has committed".⁣ ⁣ In August, Israel targeted the Houthi group's chief of staff, defence minister and other senior figures in airstrikes on Sanaa in Yemen in which the prime minister of Yemen's Houthi-run government and several other ministers were killed.⁣ ⁣ #Houthi #Yemen #Israel
