US Central Command (CENTCOM) announced that it destroyed a Houthi drone and support vehicle in an area of Yemen under Houthi control.
The operation “in the past 24 hours” targeted Iranian-backed Houthi forces, whose capabilities were considered an “imminent threat” to the US and coalition forces, as well as commercial vessels operating in the area, CENTCOM said in a statement.
