According to [Naruto
wiki](https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Summoning%3A_Impure_World_Reincarnation),
a reanimated body can die from any of the following ways:

>   1. Remove the soul from the reincarnated body, such as with the Dead Demon
> Consuming Seal.
>   2. Have the summoner end the technique. As they are unlikely to do this
> voluntarily, using a genjutsu to trick them into cancelling the technique is
> ideal.
>
>   3. A less reliable, though equally effective method is to have the
> reincarnated soul be affected in some emotional way that gives them closure,
> allowing their soul to break free of the Impure World Reincarnation's
> influence.
>
>

At episode 265, after Haku and Zabuza got reincarnated, they were faced by
Kakashi and his army. At first, they were really hesitating to kill Kakashi
and army and said that were under control of someone. Meanwhile, Kabuto used
Mitarashi Anko to harness Orochimaru's chakra to tighten Haku's and Zabuza's
soul to the body and as a result they became really powerful, a immortal
killing puppet. They were fighting really hard and at episode 266(spoilers
below):

> Both Zabuza and Haku got killed by Kakashi's chidori. [![enter image

How did they die? Neither of the above three points were followed i.e the soul
were not removed by reaper death seal, nor the summoner was under a genjutsu
nor the soul was affected in any emotional way. Yes, they were emotional at
first but after getting Orochimaru's power, their soul were tightened more to
the body which Kabuto felt that they were now a mere immortal killing machine.

> Why did Zabuza and Haku got killed by a mere ninjustsu?

How did reanimated Haku and Zabuza die?


Neither Haku or Zabuza were "killed" in the sense you describe. In the same
episode you referenced, they were both temporarily immobilized:

  * Haku was immobilized by shielding himself in front of Zabuza when attacking was attempting to strike him with Chidori

  * Zabuza was immobilized after Kakashi successfully hit him with a Chodori.

As they were immobilized, this gave [Ensui
Nara](https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Ensui_Nara) an opportunity to hold them
with the Shadow Bind technique

> After Zabuza cuts through Haku, Ensui told Santa that Kakashi only caught
> one enemy and immobilised Haku as he regenerated. When Kakashi successfully
> connected his shadow to Zabuza's, he immediately immobilised him as well.

In [this

video, you can see the shadow line holding two shinobi down. This gave another
shinobi to use the [Cloth Binding
Technique](https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Cloth_Binding_Technique) to capture
them.

Haku covered Zabuza with his body, so he died. He wanted Naruto to kill him
(Naruto had defeated Haku before, but he didn't kill him and nke wanted to do
it). Zabuza was later killed by Kakashi, but before his death he managed to
deal with some of the gang members and partially redeemed his guilt thanks to
Naruto who talked to him :)
