US Central Command (CENTCOM) said on Friday its forces destroyed an Iranian-backed Houthi missile launcher and an uncrewed surface vessel in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen in the previous 24 hours.
The forces also destroyed two Houthi uncrewed aerial vehicles over the Red Sea, CENTCOM said in a post on X.
"These weapons presented a clear and imminent threat to US and coalition forces, and merchant vessels in the region," CENTCOM added.
