The USS Mason shot down another Houthi rebel drone over the Red Sea on Wednesday following reports that militants were attacking a nearby vessel.
No damage or injuries were reported in the incident. U.S. Navy forces received reports of Houthi skiffs attacking the Motor Vessel Ardmore Encounter on Wednesday, with reports saying militants fired two missiles at the vessel that missed, according to a U.S. defense official.
The official says the U.S. has not confirmed the nature of the Houthi drone, but it is believed to have been a one-way attack drone. The official confirmed that the two missiles fired at the cargo vessel were anti-ship ballistic missiles fired from ground-based locations in Yemen.
The Houthi militants are an Iran-backed proxy terrorist group operating out of Yemen.
