In the past 24 hours, multiple Houthi weapons and vehicles were destroyed by U.S. forces, according to CENTCOM.

On Monday, CENTCOM announced that American forces had destroyed three Houthis UAS.

Between Sunday evening and Monday evening, all the weapons launched from Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen over the Gulf of Aden were destroyed.

In the past 24 hours, U.S. forces destroyed three other weapons and vessels belonging to the Houthis, in addition to what was previously reported by CENTCOM.

In the Red Sea, one Houthi USV, UAV, and ASBM were successfully destroyed by USCENTCOM forces.

U.S. and coalition forces, as well as merchant vessels in the region, faced a clear and imminent threat from the weapons, according to CENTCOM.

The statement added that the reckless and dangerous behavior of Iranian-backed Houthis continues to endanger regional stability and security.

On July 30, a Houthi drone specialist was killed in a U.S. drone strike in Iraq. This was confirmed by a senior U.S. official after several U.S. personnel were injured in a suspected rocket attack at the Ain al-Asad air base earlier on Monday.

"Officials are conducting a post-attack damage assessment and will provide updates as more information becomes available, according to a Planet Chronicle report."

Since the Hezbollah attack on kids running across a soccer field in the Golan Heights killed a dozen and the death of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, tensions in the Middle East have been escalating between Israel and its adversaries. On Monday, CENTCOM commander Gen. Michael Erik Kurilla met with the Israel Defense Forces' (IDF) Chief of the General Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi.

"The relationship between Israel and the United States is unbreakable, as evidenced by your arrival in Israel at this time, which is a tangible expression of U.S. support for Israel, according to Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant."
