The U.S. military said it had struck three underground storage facilities used by Yemen’s Houthis, as the Iran-backed rebels continue to launch attacks on shipping in the Red Sea.
U.S. forces “conducted self-defense strikes against three Houthi underground storage facilities in Iranian-backed Houthi terrorist-controlled areas of Yemen,” Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a statement.
It said U.S. forces had also “successfully engaged and destroyed four unmanned aerial vehicles” in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen throughout Friday, while also registering four anti-ship ballistic missiles fired by the Houthis toward the Red Sea.
“There were no injuries or damage reported by U.S., coalition, or commercial ships,” CENTCOM said.
