The Navy destroyer Thomas Hudner shot down “multiple one-way attack drones” Thursday while operating in the Red Sea, the second time the warship has intercepted such drones in the past eight days.
U.S. Central Command said in a brief statement that the drones were launched by Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen.
“The ship and crew sustained no damage or injury,” CENTCOM said.
