CENTCOM says Houthi anti-ship missiles targeted in latest US strikes

WASHINGTON – US Central Command forces have conducted strikes against three Houthi anti-ship missiles that were aimed into the Southern Red Sea and were prepared to launch, the US military says on X, formerly called Twitter.

“US forces identified the missiles in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen and determined that they presented an imminent threat to merchant vessels and the US Navy ships in the region. US forces subsequently struck and destroyed the missiles in self-defense,” the US Central Command says in the post on X.
