The US said on December 26 that it had shot down 12 attack drones and five missiles over the Red Sea launched by the Iran-backed Houthis. These included 12 one-way attack drones, three anti-ship ballistic missiles and two land-attack cruise missiles. The attack is part of the ongoing assault by the Yemen-based group against Israel in support of Hamas’s war in Gaza. Explosive drones that are being used in the Red Sea attacks have become a challenge to advanced militaries around the world. These unmanned aircraft are sometimes referred to as “loitering munitions” because they can fly on an unpredictable pattern for long periods. Watch this video to know what's the motive behind Houthis' Red Sea attacks against Western vessels.
