The United States conducted five self-defense strikes in areas of Yemen controlled by the Iranian-backed Houthi militia, U.S. Central Command said on Sunday, APA reports citing Reuters.
It said it struck three mobile anti-ship cruise missiles, one unmanned underwater vessel and one unmanned surface vessel on Saturday.
"This is the first observed Houthi employment of a UUV since attacks began in Oct. 23," CENTCOM said in a post on X.
