According to Al Jazeera, the US Department of Defense (Pentagon) confirmed the attack on the country’s military ships by the Yemeni Ansarullah movement.

Pentagon spokesman Pat Ryder told reporters: “American destroyers were targeted by extensive missile and drone attacks by the Yemeni Ansarullah movement in the Bab al-Mandab Strait, but the attack was thwarted.”

Referring to the details of the attack, he noted: “These warships were targeted with at least 8 suicide drones, 5 anti-ship ballistic missiles, and 3 anti-ship cruise missiles. However, our military ships were able to protect themselves from this attack.”

The Pentagon official announced: “No damage was caused to the US Navy destroyers during this attack and none of our military personnel were injured during this attack.”

Previously, the Yemeni Ansarullah movement announced the attack on US military ships in the Bab al-Mandab Strait in a statement. This attack was carried out in response to the US’s constant aggression against Yemen’s territorial integrity and bombing of the country.
