The United States military has confirmed that a US drone was shot down by the Houthis off the coast of Yemen. This incident marks the third time that the Houthis have successfully downed an American drone since the conflict in Israel began.
According to reports, the drone was targeted by the Houthis using a surface-to-air missile. The precise details of the incident, including the type of drone involved and the specific location of the attack, have not been disclosed by military officials.
The ongoing conflict in Yemen has seen increased tensions between the Houthis and the United States, with previous incidents involving the downing of American drones by Houthi forces. The US military has been conducting operations in the region to support its allies and counter threats posed by groups such as the Houthis.
This latest incident underscores the volatile nature of the situation in the region and the risks faced by military assets operating in the area. The downing of the US drone serves as a reminder of the complex geopolitical dynamics at play in the Middle East and the challenges faced by all parties involved in the conflict.
