The U.S. Navy destroyer Gravely, along with U.S. forces, successfully intercepted and destroyed a Houthi anti-ship ballistic missile and two drones in the Red Sea. This action was in response to ongoing attacks by Houthi militants in Yemen targeting commercial and military vessels. No injuries or damages were reported. U.S. officials are considering the future of the conflict and the importance of achieving maritime security in the region. While there are indications that the Houthi rebels may be depleting their arsenal of drones and missiles, a diplomatic resolution is preferred over a military one to ease tensions.
