The United States Navy has shot down three ballistic missiles fired by Iran-backed Houthis over the Red Sea.
Over a 12-hour period, the Navy has also destroyed 12 one-way attack drones, three anti-ship ballistic missiles and two land attack missiles fired by the Houthis.
The Houthi group has also taken credit for a drone attack on Israel’s port city of Eilat, in an attempt to put pressure on Israel to end its war on Gaza.
