The US Navy successfully repelled a targeted assault by Houthi forces, which included various anti-ship missiles and drones, without damaging the vessels or harming personnel.
Pentagon Press Secretary Air Force Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder confirmed that the destroyers USS Stockdale and USS Spruance fended off multiple Houthi attacks, marking a critical defense in the volatile region.
Earlier allegations by Houthis suggested they had attacked the USS Abraham Lincoln, but Ryder disputed this claim, emphasizing that the destroyers sustained no damage during the incident.
Ryder noted that the timing of US airstrikes against Houthi assets in Yemen this past weekend coincided with the ongoing threats to American naval forces in the region.
