The statement added, “CENTCOM forces also shot down multiple Houthi one-way attack drones (OWA UAV) and an anti-ship cruise missile (ASCM) over the Red Sea,” noting that “US Air Force assets, including F/A-18 fighter jets, and US Navy assets participated in the operation.”
The statement, which recalled that CENTCOM conducts planned operations to neutralize Houthi attacks such as those targeting US ships in the Southern Red Sea, Bab el-Mandeb, and the Gulf of Aden, stated, “The latest strike reflects CENTCOM's ongoing commitment to protecting US and coalition personnel, regional partners, and international maritime shipping.”
