From US military says it fended off Houthi attack on ships in Gulf of Aden
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleTwo US Navy destroyers escorting three merchant vessels through the Gulf of Aden defeated an attack by Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen, the US military says.
The Houthis launched multiple drones and a cruise missile while the ships were transiting the Gulf yesterday and today, the US Central Command says in a post on X.
“The reckless attacks resulted in no injuries and no damage to any vessels, civilians or US Naval,” CENTCOM says.
A military spokesman for the Houthis said earlier today that the group had targeted three supply ships and two American destroyers accompanying them in the Gulf of Aden.
