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 Thursdayâs 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.
Tensions explode as Yemeni Armed Forces launch a direct missile strike on Israelâs Ben Gurion Airport, retaliating for Israelâs assault on Yemenâs Hodeidah Port. One missile reportedly hit the airport, while another narrowly missed a plane before interception. Flights disrupted, air raid sirens blared across Tel Aviv and Al-Quds. Yemen declares Ben Gurion a no-fly zone and warns of future strikes on Haifa Port. President Al-Mashat vows unyielding resistance until Israel ends its Gaza offensive.

In a dramatic escalation, Israeli warships have carried out their first-ever naval strike against the Houthis in Yemen, targeting the strategic port city of Hodeidah. The attack marks a major shift in Israelâs military response to repeated Houthi missile and drone strikes. According to the Israeli military, the strike was a direct retaliation for a recent hypersonic missile launched from Yemen at Ben Gurion Airport. Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree vowed continued attacks until Israel ends its blockade on Gaza.

The U.S. military campaign against the Houthis in Yemen is proving costly and largely ineffective. With over $1.5 billion spent on munitions, 30 warships deployedâincluding the USS Eisenhowerâand advanced assets like F-35C jets, Washington faces limited success. Houthi forces, backed by Iran, have launched over 325 attacks and disrupted $1 trillion in trade via asymmetric warfare. As the Red Sea crisis deepens, analysts warn this prolonged conflict may become Americaâs next Vietnam. News that speaks your language â Oneindia App is now live | Click on the below link to download

Tensions reignite in Yemen as Houthi rebels reportedly shoot down a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone over Saada Governorateâjust days after Donald Trump announced a ceasefire deal. Dramatic footage circulating on social media appears to show the drone being hit midair and crashing in flames. The strike raises serious questions about the durability of the U.S.-Houthi truce, which Trump claimed was brokered with help from Oman to end attacks on vital Middle East shipping lanes. U.S. officials confirm multiple drone losses in recent months, and this latest downing suggests the Houthis may no longer be holding back.
