Israel reacts to the attacks of the Huthi militia and kills one of her most famous heads. Prime Minister Al -Rahaui had no real power – his death still hits the Islamists tough.
The Prime Minister of the Huthi militia supported by Iran was killed in an Israeli air raid in Yemen. A few days ago, both Ahmed al-Rahaui and several Huthi Minister died in the attack on a militia meeting in the capital Sanaa, as the Islamist Shiite organization now announced. Other of their members were violated.
Since the beginning of the Gaza War almost two years ago, the Huthi Israel has repeatedly attacked rockets and drones – according to their own statements, they want to show their solidarity with the Islamist Hamas in Gaza, which is also supported by Iran. In return, Israel’s military always attacks goals in Yemen.
The air raid on Thursday in the capital Sanaa again shows the ability of the Jewish state, leader of its most important enemies in the region. There have been some examples of this in the recent past.
Israel’s foreign intelligence agency Mossad 2024 had manipulated pagers and handheld radio devices exploded in the Lebanon, also supported by Iran. Around 40 people were killed and more than 3,000 injured. Mossad agents had reportedly contributed to the major attack of Israel against Iran, in which leading military and nuclear scientists were destroyed and nuclear scientists destroyed. And whether in Beirut, Tehran or in the Gaza Strip: Despite all the protection of protection, Israel’s security apparatus managed to specifically kill the highest leaders of the Hisbollah and Hamas.
Another rank -high functional of the Hamas now attacked Israel’s military in the city of Gaza. It was initially unclear who it was – however, Israeli media reported that the aim of the attack was the long -time spokesman for the military arm of Hamas, the Kassam brigades. This is known under his combat name Abu Obeida. He is considered one of the most famous representatives of the terrorist organization and was always only masked in appearances and video messages.
Although the Huthi Prime Minister Al-Rahaui killed had little actual authority, his death on Israel improved ability to target the league of Islamists in Jemen, 2,000 kilometers away, said Ahmed Nagi, Yemen expert at the International Crisis Group, the “Wall Street Journal”. The attack adds the Huthi “a symbolic and psychological blow, even if its strategic effect remains limited as long as its most important military commanders remain outside of Israel’s reach”.
