The United States Central Command (CENTCOM) reported on Wednesday that it destroyed two underground advanced conventional weapon (ACW) storage facilities belonging to the Houthi rebel group in Yemen.
"The Houthis used these facilities to conduct attacks against U.S. Navy warships and merchant vessels in the southern Red Sea and Gulf of Aden," CENTCOM said in the statement, adding that US personnel sustained no injuries during the operation.
The rebel group previously claimed responsibility for the attack on the American aircraft carrier Harry Truman in the Red Sea with missiles and drones.
