Houthi Attacks and US Military Responses in the Red Sea
TL;DR
The US military shot down a Houthi drone over the Red Sea and destroyed another on Yemeni soil, with U.S. Central Command stating that the Iranian-backed group launched two unmanned aerial vehicles from Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen. The strikes come as the Houthis launched a suspected attack in the Gulf of Aden, with an explosive detonating near a ship, and also fired three anti-ship ballistic missiles toward the Red Sea. This follows reports of the Houthis possessing a new hypersonic missile capable of reaching speeds of up to Mach 8.
