Deactivation of Attacks Caused by Drones and Ballistic Missiles
This Sunday, the US Central Command (Centcom) has confirmed the success in neutralizing more than 80 suicide drones and six ballistic missiles. These artifacts were part of an attempted attack originating both from Iran and positions of the Yemeni Houthi rebels against Israel.
Centcom has reported that US forces, supported by US European Command destroyers, carried out the operation effectively, averting an imminent risk to the region.
Analysis of the behavior of Iran and the Houthis
The Centcom has underlined the dangerousness of Iran’s behavior, describing it as ‘malign and reckless’, putting the security of US forces and the coalition at risk.
In addition, the activity of the Houthis, with Iranian support, in launching airstrikes against Israel and ships in the Red Sea region has been highlighted.

The President of the United States, Joe Biden, has expressed his admiration and pride for the American forces for their work in defense of Israel. In a conversation with the 494th Fighter Squadron, Biden highlighted his commitment and the positive impact of his actions.
On the other hand, the Secretary of the Department of Defense, Lloyd Austin, has held talks with the Israeli Minister of Defense, Yoav Gallant, to assess the success of the joint operation and discuss future measures.
