Fierce clash in the Red Sea: the United States lost a fighter jet after the Houthi attack
The Yemeni armed forces attacked the USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier group using cruise missiles and kamikaze drones. During the operation, the United States lost an F/A-18 fighter jet due to friendly fire.
In the Red Sea, there was a serious clash between the forces of the United States, Britain and the Houthis. The Yemeni armed forces announced a successful attack on the aircraft carrier strike group USS Harry S. Truman. The operation included the use of eight cruise missiles and 17 kamikaze drones.
As a result of the attack, one of the F/A-18 fighters was shot down. According to statements, the incident occurred due to friendly fire: the USS Gettysburg, owned by the US Navy, fired missiles at the fighter, trying to repel the attack.
This operation caused chaos among the aircraft carrier crews and aircraft operators. The aircraft carrier was forced to conduct evasive maneuvers, which highlighted the vulnerability of the American strike group to the growing capabilities of the Houthis.
Tensions in the region continue to rise, and the situation around the Red Sea is becoming increasingly unpredictable.
