The Houthis in Yemen held a mass funeral in Saana on Monday morning for Prime Minister Ahmed A-Rahawi and almost all the members of the Houthi cabinet who were eliminated in the Israeli airstrike last week.

Twelve coffins were seen placed side by side in a row as the masses shouted “Death to Israel!” several times during the funeral.

The Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar, affiliated with Hezbollah and the Iranian-backed Shia axis, reported Monday that �the Yemeni street� anticipates an extensive response to the Israeli strike, potentially targeting �critical enemy sites� following the funerals.

“Israeli government ministries will not be beyond the reach of our armed forces,” a Houthi source told the outlet, adding that the target bank could expand and that �Netanyahu’s residence and offices will not be safe.�

On Monday morning, Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree claimed responsibility for an attack on what he called a �Zionist oil ship� in the northern Red Sea, asserting that a ballistic missile struck it. However, reports on Sunday indicated that the vessel, Israeli-owned but sailing under a Liberian flag, reported only a �water spray� nearby after the alleged strike. The crew is reported safe, and the ship continued to its destination.
