The Israeli regime has admitted assassinating the leader of Hamas movement in the Iranian capital Tehran vowing that it will inflict the same fate on the Yemeni resistance fighters over their operations against the occupied territories.

Israeli minister for military affairs Yizrael Katz made the remarks on Monday, claiming that the regime would escalate its attacks against Yemen, including by staging assassinations.

“Just as we did to [Ismail] Haniyeh, [Yahya] Sinwar, and [Sayyed Hassan] Nasrallah in Tehran, Gaza, and Lebanon, “Katz alleged, referring to the former Hamas Political Bureau chief, his successor, and the former secretary general of Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement, the regime would “damage the strategic infrastructure, and behead the leaders “of whatever party that takes aim at it.

Katz threatened that the regime would carry out the atrocities that he had mentioned in Yemen’s capital Sana’a and western port city of al-Hudaydah.

” Whoever will raise his hand to Israel, his hand will be severed. The Israeli military's long arm will harm him and will settle the score."

Haniyeh was assassinated back in July after the regime carried out a targeted killing operation against the Iranian capital Tehran, to which he had travelled as an official guest to attend the inauguration ceremony of Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian.

The regime assassinated Haniyeh’s successor, Sinwar, in another attack against the Gaza Strip in October, and staged a targeted killing strike against Beirut in September that resulted in the assassination of Nasrallah.

Katz further claimed that Tel Aviv had “defeated Hamas,” adding, “We have won over Hezbollah, have blinded Iran's defense systems, and damaged the production systems, we have toppled [former Syrian president Bashar] al-Assad in Syria.”

The Israeli official, however, went on to say, “We have dealt a severe blow” to the regional Axis of Resistance, “and we will also deal a severe blow” to Yemen’s popular resistance Ansarullah movement, “which remains the last to stand and fire at Israel.”

Yemen’s Armed Forces have been conducting numerous pro-Palestinian strikes since October 7, 2023, when the Israeli regime began taking the Gaza Strip under a United States-backed genocidal war that has so far claimed the lives of more than 45,200 Palestinians, mostly women and children.
