Houthis reaffirm support for Hamas after commander’s killing

Yemen’s Houthis reaffirmed support for Palestinian armed groups in the Gaza Strip following the reported killing of senior Hamas commander Izz al-Din al-Haddad.

In a condolence message posted on Telegram, Houthi military leader Yusuf Hassan al-Madani described al-Haddad’s death as a major loss for the Palestinian movement and the wider region.

Al-Madani said the Houthis would continue what he called joint efforts with Hamas and allied factions “until victory is achieved”.
