DEVELOPING: WW3 WATCH: Houthis Sink British Ship in Red Sea, Shoot Down US Reaper Drone, Attack Two US Ships in Gulf of Aden: Report

*World War 3 Watch*
Iran-backed Houthis sunk a British ship in the Red Sea on Monday and attacked two US ships in the Gulf of Aden.
The US is also investigating a US Reaper drone that crashed in Yemen on Monday.
A spokesman for the Houthis claimed the $30 million unmanned US Reaper drone was shot down “with a suitable missile.”
According to reports: “The United Kingdom’s Maritime Trade Operations Agency (UKMTO) reported Monday that the Houthis sunk a ship traveling in the Red Sea , south of the port city of Mukha in Yemen. It is the the first time since the start of Israel’s war on Hamas in Gaza that a crew had to abandon their ship because of the Houthis.”
“Yemen’s Houthi militants said on Monday they attacked two US ships, Sea Champion and Navis Fortuna, in the Gulf of Aden.” The Jerusalem Post reported.
“The targeting operation was carried out with a number of appropriate naval missiles, and the casualties were accurate and direct, thanks to God,” the group’s military spokesman Yahya Sarea said in a statement.
This is what it looks like with a weak, mentally incapacitated and corrupt US president like Joe Biden in power.

... but there's no way the Houthis could ever find a way to cut communications cables in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. :whistle:

These days, with the proper weapons, a little mouse can make a mighty big "roar"...

I just want to know what they have that can shoot down a Reaper drone. I was always under the impression that those aren't easy targets.

We have lost a number of drones, between Russian aggression in Ukraine and the fine people of Yemen.
At what point does the person running this country pull his head out of his posterior and do something vaguely resembling defending assets of the USA?
The Biden Idiocracy is 100 TIMES worse than the worst admin in USA history. James Buchanan often gets touted as the worst. He had nothing on Biden for incompetence!!!
