US CENTCOM Conducts Precision Strikes On Houthi Targets In Yemen
U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces have conducted precision airstrikes against two Houthi weapon storage facilities in Yemen, responding to recent attacks on U.S. Navy warships and commercial vessels in the Red Sea.
The strikes targeted underground facilities used to store advanced conventional weapons (ACW) in Houthi-controlled territory. CENTCOM stated that these facilities were used to launch attacks against U.S. and international shipping in the southern Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.
The strikes were carried out with precision munitions to minimize the risk of civilian casualties. CENTCOM confirmed that there were no injuries or damage to U.S. personnel or equipment during the operation.
This action comes amid heightened tensions in the region, with Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen increasingly targeting commercial shipping and U.S. naval vessels. The Houthis have employed a variety of weapons, including missiles and explosive-laden drones, in these attacks.
