Nearly two months after an Israeli airstrike struck a meeting of senior Houthi officials in Yemen's capital, reports indicate that the group's defense minister, Mohammed Nasser al-Atifi, is now near death. The strike, which occurred on August 28, resulted in the deaths of the Houthi prime minister and several other ministers. According to the Defense Line news site, al-Atifi has remained hospitalized since the attack, with his condition reportedly worsening rapidly.
