Houthi rebels shot down and destroyed two American MQ-9 Reaper drones within just 24 hours.
Footage released by the Houthis shows the charred remains of the sophisticated U.S. drones, proudly displayed as a warning to Washington.
The back-to-back takedowns mark a major escalation in the region, raising questions about U.S. drone vulnerability and the limits of deterrence in the Middle East.
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

Yemenâs armed forces launched a hypersonic ballistic missile at Israelâs Ben Gurion Airport, halting operations and sending civilians into shelters. This marks the latest in a series of precise retaliatory strikes by the Houthis, who have previously targeted Israeli infrastructure. Three additional drone attacks hit Yaffa, Ashdod, and Umm al-Rashrash. Yemenâs President Mahdi Al-Mashat warned foreign companies to exit Israel or face "real and significant risks." The Yemen military stated operations will continue until Gazaâs blockade ends and aggression ceases, signaling potential escalation.

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has described Americaâs widely perceived failure against Yemenâs Houthis as a âtailored operation,â claiming the goal was freedom of navigation and not the protection of Israeli-linked vessels. Notably, Hegseth made no mention of Israel during his statement. Critics argue the Pentagon has rebranded a humiliating military result, after months of failed deterrence against Houthi strikes in the Red Sea. The Pentagon's shifting rhetoric has sparked fresh debate over U.S. credibility, especially in light of its deep alliance with Israel.

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.

In a dramatic escalation, Yemenâs Houthi forces have shot down a second American MQ-9 Reaper drone within just 24 hours, using a locally-made surface-to-air missile. The footage shows the exact moment the US drone was hit over Sanaa Governorate â followed by scenes of flaming wreckage and victorious fighters on the ground. Houthi spokesperson Yahya Sarea claims this is the 21st US drone downed since November 2023.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed in a TV interview that the Trump administration diverted 20,000 anti-drone missiles, originally approved under Biden, away from Ukraine to the Middle East. Zelensky said Ukraine relied on these precision-guided weapons to counter Shaheed drone strikes, including a record 472 drones on June 1. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth cited urgency but skipped a major Ukraine meeting. Trump later resumed aid after Kyiv agreed to a ceasefire, sparking backlash over his stance to âlet the war continue.â

This Eid al-Adha, Gaza's displaced families prayed in rubble, lacking food, shelter, and hope. With mosques and homes destroyed, celebrations faded into grief. Nine civilians were killed while seeking aid, and famine threatens nearly all of Gaza. Children fear warplanes, not joy. As Israel continues its military operations, and the UN warns of starvation, Gazans mark Eid with mourning, not festivity. Over 54,000 have died, mostly women and children. The war, ignited on October 7, 2023, rages onâleaving Gaza broken, hungry, and unheard.

Houthi REVENGE Begins: Yemen has launched a âPalestine 2â hypersonic ballistic missile targeting Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, marking a major escalation in regional tensions. The strike, in response to Israeli airstrikes on Beirut, disrupted air traffic and sent thousands into shelters. Yemeni Armed Forces vowed continued support for Gaza and Lebanon, stating attacks will persist until Israel ends its war on Gaza. While Israel claims the missile was intercepted, sirens rang across central Israel and occupied territories. This marks Yemenâs first official missile strike on Israeli infrastructure from afar.
