[Regnum] Rebels from the Shiite movement Ansar Allah (Houthis) attacked the American aircraft carrier USS Harry Truman in the Red Sea with drones and missiles. This statement was made on January 6 by the representative of the Yemeni movement, Yahya Saria.
"The operation, carried out using two cruise missiles and four drones, disrupted the United States' preparations for a large-scale air strike on Yemen," Al Masirah TV quoted the movement's representative as saying.
In addition, the Houthis carried out two more drone strikes later in the evening, targeting a military facility in the Israeli port city of Jaffa and a “vital Israeli facility” in Ashkelon, Yahya Sari said. He added that the drones successfully reached their targets.
| Betcha none of the weapons hit their targets this time, dear Reader, just like almost all Houthi attacks previously. |
On January 3, the Ansar Allah movement also reported a missile strike on a power plant. The attack targeted a facility east of the Israeli city of Tel Aviv. In addition, the Houthis reported using drones to strike a "military target" located in the said settlement.
On January 1, the Ansar Allah movement reported the destruction of a US-made MQ-9 Reaper drone over Yemen. According to Yahya Sariyya, the drone was in the airspace of Marib province.
