The ballistic missile likely targeted the US-flagged MV Yorktown, which is owned and operated by the US.

A US-led coalition ship on Wednesday, April 24, intercepted a Yemeni Houthi missile launched over the Gulf of Aden. Four UAVs were also destroyed, reported American Central Command.

It was noted that the missile likely targeted the US-flagged MV Yorktown, which is owned and operated by the US, with 18 US crew members and four Greek crew members. No damage or injury to American, coalition or commercial ships was reported.

In addition, four unmanned aerial vehicles were destroyed in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen.

“These measures are being taken to protect freedom of navigation and improve the safety of international waters for US, coalition and merchant vessels,” the Command explained.

They also emphasized that anti-ship missiles and drones are a direct threat to American, coalition and merchant ships in the region.

Earlier, the United States destroyed four Houthi drones that targeted their ship.

Before this, the Houthis shot down an American MQ-9 drone near Yemen. The militants used surface-to-air missiles to strike.
