A US warship patrolling the Red Sea intercepted multiple attack drones launched from Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen on Thursday, the US Central Command has said.
“On the morning (Yemen time) of November 23, the USS Thomas Hudner (DDG 116) shot down multiple one-way attack drones launched from Houthi controlled areas in Yemen,” Centcom said on X, previously Twitter. “The ship and crew sustained no damage or injury,” it added.
The Huthis have declared themselves part of the “axis of resistance” of Iran’s allies and proxies and have launched a series of drones and missiles towards Israel after the start of the war in Gaza.
