The U.S. Central Command forces (CENTCOM) said it on Thursday that it had conducted "four self-defense strikes" in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen the previous day.
"U.S. CENTCOM forces successfully conducted four self-defense strikes against seven mobile anti-ship cruise missiles, three mobile unmanned aerial vehicles, and one explosive unmanned surface vessel in Houthi controlled areas of Yemen, that were prepared to launch against ships in the Red Sea."
The CENTCOM also revealed that the U.S. forces seized advanced conventional weapons and other lethal aid from Iran that were bound for Houthi-held areas of Yemen on a vessel in the Arabian Sea on January 28.
The Houthi group in Yemen has repeatedly launched drones and missiles against international commercial shipping since mid-November, saying they are acting in solidarity with Palestinians against Israel's military actions in Gaza.
