Lazar Berman is The Times of Israel's diplomatic reporter
After the Houthis announce that their military chief of staff, Muhammad al-Ghamari, has died, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu boasts that “another chief of staff was eliminated from the ranks of terror leaders who sought to harm us.”
“We will reach everyone,” Netanyahu promises in a statement.
His office says that “Israel’s determined hand will reach everyone who has tried to harm us and made it their goal to destroy Israel.”
Defense Minister Israel Katz confirmed that Ghamari was killed as a result of Israel’s strike on the Iran-backed group’s leaders in August.
