US' 20th Reaper Fall: Houthis Turn $30 Million US Drone to Ashes; Chilling Moment the Drone Falls

US' 20th Reaper Fall: In a stunning escalation of the Yemen conflict, the Houthis have reportedly shot down a US MQ-9 Reaper drone, marking the 20th such loss for the United States. The drone, valued at over $30 million, was torn apart mid-flight by a surface-to-air missile launched by Houthi forces during Thursday’s American airstrikes on their strongholds. Footage released by the Houthis shows the drone plummeting from the sky in flames, with locals surrounding the wreckage, chanting "Allahu Akbar." While the US has yet to confirm the loss, the strike highlights the growing sophistication of Houthi anti-air capabilities and their ongoing efforts to challenge US military dominance in the region. #Houthis #HouthisDownReaperDrone #YemenHouthis #HouthisDownAmericanMQ9ReaperDrone #HouthiRebels #HouthiShotDownMQ9ReaperDrone #Houthi #MQ9ReaperDrone #HouthiDownMQ9ReaperDrone #MQ9Reaper #HouthisYemen #HouthisDroneAttack #HowHouthisDownedMQ9Reaper #MQ9ReaperDrone #HouthiDownMQ9ReaperDrone #HouthisAttackUSDrone ~HT.178~PR.152~
