 Houthi's attack US warship in Gulf of Aden. Houthi militants fired a missile at a US warship in the Gulf of Aden. Yahya Sarri, a spokesman for the Yemen-based group, has claimed. He described the incident as the latest response to American aggression in the region. The attack targeting the USS Lewis B. Puller expeditionary mobile-based vessel took place on the evening of January 28. Yahya Sarri said in a telegram post, the spokesman did not specify if the missile had hit the vessel. The warship in question was providing logistical support to the US forces participating in the aggression against Yemen and was targeted as part of Houthi measures to protect the country. Sarri stated. The militant group will continue to strike commercial ships in the region until Israel ends its attacks on Gaza and the blockade of the Palestinian enclave is lifted, the spokesman added. The US military has yet to officially comment on the alleged attack. However, an unnamed American defence official told there have been no reports of USS Lewis B. Puller being targeted. Since mid-October, the Houthis have launched multiple drones and missiles targeting Israeli-bound vessels off the coast of Yemen, disrupting shipping along key routes in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. The US and UK subsequently launched airstrikes against the group to reduce its ability to strike ships. However, they thus far appear to have been unable to prevent Houthi attacks. Earlier, Sarri claimed that a number of our ballistic missiles have reached their targets amid clashes between Houthi forces and US warships protecting commercial vessels.
