The U.S. Central Command said late on Saturday that it had destroyed an anti-ship cruise missile in Yemen that was prepared to launch against ships in the Red Sea.
"U.S. forces identified the cruise missile in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen and determined it presented an imminent threat to U.S. Navy ships and merchant vessels in the region," it said in a statement.
