The United States Central Command (CENTCOM) announced on July 4 that its forces carried out another series of strikes against targets of the Houthis (Ansar Allah) in Yemen over the past day.
The strikes destroyed two radar sites in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen, the command said in a statement, adding that its forces also destroyed two uncrewed surface vessels (USV) of the group in the Red Sea.
“It was determined the radar sites and USVs presented imminent threats to U.S., coalition forces, and merchant vessels in the region. This action was taken to protect freedom of navigation and make international waters safer and more secure,” the statement reads.
The Houthis didn’t announce any attacks on July 3. The group-linked Al-Masirah TV didn’t also report any strikes on Yemen on that day.
Since last November, the Houthis have attacked dozens of vessels affiliated with Israel or owned by the U.S. and the United Kingdom in the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aden, the Arabian Sea, the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea in response to the Israeli war and siege on the Palestinian enclave of the Gaza Strip.
The group also launched dozens of drones and missiles at the southernmost Israeli city of Eilat and shot down six American-made combat drones over Yemen and nearby waters.
The U.S. and the UK have carried out hundreds of strikes against Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen since January in an attempt to deter the group and degrade its offensive capabilities, but to no avail.
