German ambassador: ‘World mustn’t get used to the Houthis‘ trying to kill Israeli civilians’

Germany’s Ambassador to Israel Steffen Seibert says “the world mustn’t get used to the Houthis‘ trying to kill Israeli civilians,” responding to a drone strike by the Iran-backed terror group in Eilat that injured 20 people.

“A Houthi drone hits Eilat and injures several people — I wish them all a full recovery. The world mustn’t get used to the Houthis‘ trying to kill Israeli civilians just because they say they act for the people of Gaza. Whom of course they do not help one bit,” he writes on X.
