US forces shoot down, destroy missiles from Houthi areas, Centcom says

US forces on Tuesday shot down one anti-ship ballistic missile and three one-way attack unmanned aerial systems launched from Iranian-backed Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen toward the USS Carney in the Red Sea, the US Central Command said.

US forces later destroyed three anti-ship missiles and three unmanned surface vessels in self-defense, Centcom said in a statement.
