The Yemeni rebel forces known as the Houthis have condemned the killing of a senior Hamas official in Beirut on Tuesday — calling it a "cowardly crime," APA reports citing CNN.
In a statement, the group's political bureau accused Israel of carrying out the attack which killed senior Hamas official Saleh Al-Arouri.
Israel has denied responsibility for the attack with Mark Regev, the senior advisor to the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahi, telling NBC News that Israel had "no comment" on Tuesday's events in Beirut.
In their statement, the Houthis described Arouri's killing as a "brutal and cowardly crime."
The group described Arouri as a "leader" of Palestinian resistance, expressing support for avenging action to be taken against Israel.
