Houthis Claim Bold Attacks on U.S. Aircraft Carrier and Israeli Sites 🚀
In a dramatic announcement, Yemen's Houthi group declared on Monday that they targeted the U.S. aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman in the northern Red Sea with two winged missiles and four drones. 😱 But that's not all—they also claimed to have struck sites in Israel!
According to Yahya Sarea, the Houthi military spokesperson, their forces \"carried out a qualitative military operation… while the American enemy was preparing to launch a major air attack on Yemen,\" which they say they thwarted thanks to their bold move. 🛡️
He added that the Houthis carried out multiple attacks on Israeli sites, hitting two military targets in Tel Aviv and a \"vital target\" in Ashkelon city with drones. 🎯
\"We will continue our operations in support of the Palestinian resistance, and these operations will not stop until the aggression on Gaza stops and the siege is lifted,\" Sarea stated, highlighting their stance in the ongoing conflict. ✊
So far, neither the U.S. military nor the Israel Defense Forces have commented on these claims. The silence leaves many questions hanging in the air. 🤔
