Israel admits to assassinating Ismail Haniyeh
Katz added that now they would damage Houthis' strategic infrastructure
Tel Aviv: Israel has publicly acknowledged the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh for the first time.
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said in a statement that they would do to the Houthi leaders what they did to Ismail Haniyeh, Yahya Sinwar, and Hassan Nasrallah.
The Israeli Defense Minister stated that he wants to send a clear message to the Houthis that they have defeated Hamas and Hezbollah, damaged Iran's defense and production systems, and toppled the Bashar al-Assad government in Syria.
Katz added that now they would damage the Houthis' strategic infrastructure.
It is pertinent to note that Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the Palestinian resistance organization Hamas, was assassinated in July this year when he went to Tehran for the swearing-in ceremony of President Masoud Peshmerga in Iran, but Israel did not formally acknowledge the attack.
