US aircraft, coalition ship shoot down five Houthi attack drones in Red Sea

The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said U.S. aircraft and a coalition warship on Feb. 27 shot down five one-way attack drones in the Red Sea that originated from Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen.

The drones "presented an imminent threat to merchant vessels and to the U.S. Navy and coalition ships in the region," CENTCOM said in a statement on Wednesday.
