Yemen’s Houthis say military chief of staff Mohammed al-Ghamari killed
Yemen’s Houthi rebel group has announced that the country’s military chief of staff, Mohammed al-Ghamari, was killed in a drone strike in the central province of Marib. The incident took place on Sunday, according to the rebel group’s spokesperson. Al-Ghamari was allegedly targeted while attending a military event in the area.
The Houthi rebels, who control the capital Sanaa and much of the north, blamed the Saudi-led coalition for the attack. They accused the coalition of carrying out the strike with the support of the United States. The Saudi-led coalition has not yet commented on the incident.
The killing of Mohammed al-Ghamari is seen as a significant blow to the Yemeni government, which has been battling the Houthi rebels for control of the country since 2014. Al-Ghamari was a key figure in the government’s efforts to counter the Houthi insurgency.
The Houthi rebels have been fighting against the internationally recognized government of President Abdrabbuh Mansur Hadi. The conflict has triggered a humanitarian crisis in Yemen, with millions of people facing food insecurity and the collapse of basic services.
Both sides in the conflict have been accused of committing human rights abuses, including targeting civilians and restricting access to aid. The killing of Mohammed al-Ghamari is likely to escalate tensions between the warring factions and could lead to renewed violence in the region.
The situation in Yemen remains volatile, with no clear end to the conflict in sight. The international community has called for a peaceful resolution to the crisis, but efforts to reach a lasting ceasefire have so far been unsuccessful.
