The prime minister of Yemen's Houthi group was killed in an Israeli airstrike along with other officials earlier this week, the Iran-backed group announced on Saturday.
"We announce the martyrdom of the fighter Ahmed Ghaleb Nasser Al-Rahawi... along with several of his ministerial colleagues, as they were targeted by the treacherous Israeli criminal enemy," a Huthi statement said.
