The US Navy intercepted a barrage of Houthi missiles and drones launched at three of its warships in the Red Sea on Thursday, two US defense officials said.
The attack was one of the largest yet on US warships in the Middle East, one of the officials told CNN.
The barrage was launched at the USS Spruance and USS Stockdale — both guided missile destroyers — and the USS Indianapolis, a littoral combat ship, while they were traveling north of the Bab el-Mandeb strait.
