US destroyer shoots down 14 Yemen-launched drones

A US warship and a Royal Navy destroyer successfully destroyed 14 suspected attack drones launched by Houthi rebels in Yemen over the Red Sea. The drones were targeting commercial ships in the busy shipping route. This comes amidst the Israel-Hamas conflict, where the rebels have also launched drones and missiles towards Israel. The engagement resulted in no damage to ships or reported injuries. The UK remains committed to protecting the free flow of global trade and repelling these attacks.
