Houthis will follow Hamas, Hezbollah into defeat, Netanyahu says

The Houthis in Yemen will suffer the same fate as Israel’s other enemies in the region, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says at a Hanukkah candle lighting for Prime Minister’s Office employees in Jerusalem.

“Today we are lighting the first candle of Hanukkah to commemorate the victory of the Maccabees of that time and the victory of the Maccabees of today,” he says. “Like we did then, we land blows at the oppressors and those who thought they would cut the thread of our life here, and this will apply to everyone.”

“The Houthis will also learn what Hamas and Hezbollah and the Assad regime and others learned, and even if it takes time, this lesson will be learned throughout the Middle East,” he promises.

Netanyahu is joined by Ronen and Orna Neutra, parents of slain Israeli-American hostage Omer Neutra.
