The kamikaze drone poses a threat to American warships and merchant ships in the region.
The US military destroyed an attack drone launched by the Yemeni Houthis in the Red Sea on the night of May 7. This was reported by the press service of the US Central Command.
The kamikaze drone posed a direct threat to American warships and merchant ships in the region.
“At approximately 10:47 am on May 6, US Central Command forces successfully attacked and destroyed an unmanned aerial system launched by Iran-backed Houthi terrorists over the Red Sea,” said report.
The measures taken by the US military are aimed at ensuring the protection of shipping and enhancing security in the region’s international waters.
We remind you that the United States earlier intercepted an anti-ship missile and four Houthi drones. The missile was likely aimed at the US-flagged MV Yorktown.
On April 26, a reconnaissance and attack drone of the US Air Force MQ-9 Reaper worth up to 30 million crashed on the coast of Yemen.
According to media reports, the United States held secret negotiations with Iran and tried to convince Tehran to use its influence with the Houthis to stop attacks on ships in the Red Sea.
