The Houthi movement in Yemen has attacked two US warships in the Bab al-Mandab Strait, between the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. The two American fighters repelled the drone attacks, the Pentagon announced.
The attack by the Islamist movement, which has taken control of large swathes of land in Yemen, consisted of eight drones and eight robots of two different types, according to Pentagon spokesman Pat Ryder.
The Houthi movement, like the Hezbollah movement in Lebanon, is supported by Iran. The attacks on ships in the Red Sea began on October 19 last year and are part of the wider conflict in the Middle East following the terror-labeled Hamas attack on Israel on October 7 last year.

Israel has improved the flow of emergency aid to Gaza enough for the US not to limit its military support to the country.
This is stated by the US State Department, which nevertheless criticizes Israel for not doing enough to help the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
The US had set Tuesday as the deadline for Israel to meet set demands for increased emergency aid to Gaza. And after an evaluation, the country does not believe that Israel violated US laws regarding how much – or how little – emergency aid reaches Gaza.
This despite the fact that eight international aid organizations are raising the alarm that Israel has taken steps that have worsened the situation.
