Yemen : Houthis conduct ‘qualitative military operation’ targeting US warships

Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis carried out a military operation in which they targeted two US warship destroyers in the Red Sea, the group’s military spokesman, Yahya Sarea, said in a televised speech on Tuesday.
He said the ships were targeted with a number of naval missiles and drones.
Houthis’ Red Sea attacks have disrupted global shipping, forcing firms to re-route to longer and more expensive journeys around southern Africa, and stoked fears that the Israel-Hamas war could spread to destabilize the wider Middle East.
Houthi militants have repeatedly launched drones and missiles against international commercial shipping since mid-November, saying they are acting in solidarity with Palestinians against Israel’s military actions in Gaza.
