US Navy ships repel attack from Houthis in Gulf of Aden

The U.S. Navy destroyers USS Stockdale and USS O’Kane repelled an attack against American ships by Yemen-based Houthi rebels, CENTCOM says.

"The destroyers successfully engaged and defeated three anti-ship ballistic missiles, three one-way attack uncrewed aerial systems, and one anti-ship cruise missile, ensuring the safety of the ships and their personnel, as well as civilian vessels and their crews," the statement continued.  Greg Norman is a reporter at Fox News Digital.

"These actions reflect the ongoing commitment of CENTCOM forces to protect U.S. personnel, regional partners, and international shipping, against attacks by Iran-backed Houthis," CENTCOM added.
