A video shared on Facebook claimed Iranian-backed Houthi rebels sunk four United States ships in a recent attack. Verdict: Misleading While the Houthis did attack these four ships, there is no evidence that they were sunk.

The U.S. Navy destroyers USS Stockdale and USS O’Kane repelled an attack against American ships by Yemen-based Houthi rebels, CENTCOM says.

U.S. Navy warships fought off airborne attacks on a trio of American merchant vessels by Yemen-based Houthi militia.

Two U.S. Navy destroyers shot down incoming Houthi missiles and drones that were targeting three U.S.-flagged commercial ships that the destroyers were escorting in the Gulf of Aden, the U.S. military said.
