US military says it destroyed seven Houthi radars after attack on ship

The US military said on Friday it had destroyed seven Houthi radars, one drone and two uncrewed surface vessels in Yemen in the past 24 hours.

The move comes two days after a Greek-owned vessel was damaged in an attack by Houthi militants and left drifting in the Red Sea.

"These radars allow the Houthis to target maritime vessels and endanger commercial shipping," US Central Command said on the social media site X. —Reuters
