Yemen's Houthis said on Thursday that their Chief of Staff Muhammad Abd Al-Karim al-Ghamari, one of the most senior military officials of the Iran-backed group, was killed "while fulfilling his duties".
Without directly blaming Israel for his killing, Houthis said that the conflict with Israel had not ended. Israel will "receive its deterrent punishment for the crimes it has committed".
Israel had tried unsuccesfully to eliminate the Houthi chief of staff, once in the Sana'a area of Yemen a few weeks ago.
The Houthis had fired missiles towards Israel in what they said were acts of solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza, most of which have been intercepted. Israel has responded with strikes on Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen.
Al-Ghamari was previously added to the United Nations Security Council sanctions list in November 2021.
The UN in its accusations against him said he "has engaged in acts and provided support for acts that threaten the peace, security and stability of Yemen."
It also said al-Ghamari took part in cross-border attacks against Saudi Arabia.
