Yemen’s Houthi movement confirmed on 30 August 2025 that an Israeli airstrike launched earlier this week in Sanaa killed their Prime Minister Ahmed al-Rahawi along with several cabinet ministers during a routine government workshop . The Israeli military stated it targeted a “Houthi terrorist regime military target” in the capital but did not elaborate on casualties . Al-Rahawi had served as the prime minister since August 2024, and his death marks the highest-ranking Houthi casualty to date, emphasizing a significant escalation in Israel’s campaign against Iran-backed Houthi rebels.
