US launches strikes against Houthis
In the last two days of December, U.S. Navy ships and aircraft struck a Houthi command and control facility, as well as a production and storage facility for advanced conventional weapons (ACW), including missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
"These facilities have been used in Houthi operations, such as attacks on U.S. warships and merchant vessels in the southern Red Sea and Gulf of Aden," the U.S. military said.
In addition, U.S. Navy and Air Force aircraft destroyed a Houthi coastal radar station and seven cruise missiles and unilateral attack UAVs over the Red Sea.
It is noted that there were no casualties among the US military during the strikes. In addition, US military equipment was not damaged.
"These strikes are part of the Central Command's efforts to reduce Iranian-backed Houthi efforts to threaten regional partners, military and commercial vessels in the region," the US Command said in a report.
Earlier, we reported that Israeli air defense systems shot down a ballistic missile fired by Yemeni Houthis. After that, the IDF conducted air strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen.
