[Regnum] The US Navy destroyer Thomas Hudner, located in the Red Sea, had to repel a drone attack, the Pentagon reported on November 15.

“We are aware of an incident with the destroyer USS Thomas Hudner, during which the ship successfully defended itself against a UAV while sailing through the Red Sea ,” the department said.

The Pentagon did not disclose any other details.

On October 8, Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin ordered Thomas Hudner to head to the eastern Mediterranean due to the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. He also sent the aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford and the destroyers Ramage, Carney and Roosevelt to the region.

Pentagon spokesman Patrick Ryder said on October 20 that Carney sailors intercepted cruise missiles and drones launched from Yemen.
