The prime minister of Yemen's Houthi movement, Ahmed Ghaleb Nasser Al-Rahawi, was killed in an Israeli airstrike near Sanaa, along with several other officials. The Houthi group announced the deaths, stating that some companions were also wounded and are receiving medical care. Al-Rahawi was the most senior Houthi official to be killed in a series of Israeli strikes linked to the ongoing war in Gaza. The Houthis have frequently launched attacks against Israel and targeted shipping in the region, citing solidarity with Palestinians. The group controls much of Yemen and is part of a broader alliance opposing Israel in the Middle East.
