He added: "The terrorist was killed alongside Huthi militia commander Abu Ashraf al-Asadi and eight members of the militia, while his body was evacuated in an ambulance to the al-Jouba area before being transferred to the Saada governorate, where the bodies of dozens of Iran

and Hizbullah experts and fighters are being buried in full secrecy."

The Yemeni minister accordingly called on the Lebanese government and people to "take a decisive stance over Hizbullah’s continued interference in the Yemeni affairs and its involvement in the shelling of cities and villages and the death of Yemenis."

He also called on the international community, the U.N. and the permanent members of the U.N. Security Council to "condemn this blatant interference which is undermining the efforts of pacification and peacemaking in Yemen," while urging them to "toughen the sanctions against Hizbullah’s leaders."
