As reported by Regnum News Agency, on April 4, the Houthis launched another attack on the US aircraft carrier Harry Truman and other US Navy ships in the Red Sea.

In particular, Ben Gurion Airport and the Sdot Miha military base, located east of Ashdod, came under fire. This was reported by the Al Masirah TV channel.
As reported by Regnum news agency, on April 6, the Houthis attacked the American aircraft carrier Harry Truman and its escort ships in the northern part of the Red Sea. On April 3, the Ansar Allah movement also announced a strike on a US Navy carrier group in the Red Sea led by Harry Truman.

On March 22, a US air strike on Hodeidah International Airport in western Yemen wounded Houthi naval commander Mansour al-Saadi. It was reported that at least seven other members of the movement were also injured.
The IDF reported that only one missile reached Israel, and it was successfully intercepted by air defenses. The second likely fell short, similar to numerous other recent Houthi attacks. The Houthis further claim to have targeted a “vital Israeli enemy target” in the Ashkelon area with a drone. There have been no reports of drones reaching Israel from Yemen in the past day. | |||
