Israel acknowledges it killed ex-Hamas leader Haniyeh in Tehran
Defense Minister Israel Katz has acknowledged that Israel killed former Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran earlier this year, as he warned the military would "decapitate" the leadership of Yemen’s Houthi rebels.
"We will strike hard at the Houthis... and decapitate their leadership -- just as we did with Haniyeh, (Yahya) Sinwar, and (Sayyed Hassan) Nasrallah in Tehran, Gaza, and Lebanon, we will do so in Hodeida and Sanaa," Katz said, in the first public acknowledgement that Israel was behind the killing of Haniyeh in July in the Iranian capital.
