IDF said to believe entire Houthi cabinet was likely killed in yesterday’s strike
The IDF currently assesses that the entire cabinet of the Houthi cabinet — including the prime minister and 12 other ministers — were likely killed in yesterday’s strike in Yemen, Channel 12 reports without citing any sources.
The network says the assessment is not definitive and that the IDF is still working to reach a more definitive understanding of the strike’s results.
Channel 12 says the Houthi defense minister and military chief of staff were en route to the location of the cabinet meeting shortly before the strike and were apparently at the site when it was hit.
