Yemen’s Houthi fighters say they’ve shot down a second US MQ-9 Reaper drone, with the incident reportedly taking place over Al Hodeidah Governorate in the country’s west.
“In Hodeidah, the Yemeni air defenses were able, with the help of God Almighty, to shoot down an American aircraft (MQ-9) with a suitable missile while it was carrying out hostile missions against our country on behalf of the Zionist entity,” Houthi spokesman Yahya Sare’e said in a statement Monday.
“The Yemeni Armed Forces will not hesitate to take more military measures and carry out more qualitative operations against all hostile targets in defense of beloved Yemen and in confirmation of the position of support for the Palestinian people. The operations of the Yemeni Armed Forces in the Red and Arabian Seas will not stop until the aggression stops and the siege on the Gaza Strip is lifted,” he added.
CENTCOM, the United States combatant command responsible for operations in the Middle East, has yet to comment on the Houthis’ announcement.
