Houthi Rebels Reportedly Take Down A U.S. MQ-9 Reaper Drone In Yemen

Populist Times-

Houthi rebels in Yemen reportedly shot down an aircraft early Friday, which bystanders described as an American drone, according to videos circulating online.

The footage showed what appeared to be a flaming object descending from the sky, eventually crashing in a fiery field in Yemen’s al-Jawf province.

The U.S. military acknowledged the incident, stating that it is investigating but has not provided additional details on the type of aircraft involved.

The low-quality video captured during the night did not clearly show the specific model of the aircraft.

However, the Houthis have previously used surface-to-air missiles, such as the Iranian-made 358 missile, capable of targeting drones and other aircraft. more
