The US Central Command says it engaged 11 drones over the Red Sea, Al Jazeera reports.
CENTCOM said the first three drones were launched from Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen in the early hours of Wednesday — two over the Gulf of Aden and one over the Red Sea.
Later that evening, CENTCOM said it destroyed eight drones launched from Houthi-controlled Yemen.
“It was determined the UAVs [unmanned aerial vehicles] presented an imminent threat to U.S., coalition, and merchant vessels in the region,” it said in a statement.
