Katz addressed the Yemeni Houthis, who are shelling Israeli territory with rockets. The minister recalled that Israel defeated Hamas and Hezbollah, and also “blinded” the air defense systems in Iran and damaged the Iranian missile production systems.

We will strike at the strategic infrastructure (of the Houthis – ed.) and decapitate their leaders. Just as we did to Haniya, Sinwar (Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar – ed.) and Nasrallah (Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah – ed.) in Tehran, Gaza and Lebanon, we will do in Hodeidah and Sanaa (Yemen cities – ed.),

We will remind

In July of this year, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was assassinated in Iran, prompting threats of Israeli retaliation. The killing has heightened concerns about the spillover of the conflict in Gaza into the Middle East.
