The Houthi rebels have announced 5th attack on U.S. aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman in the Red Sea. The Houthis claimed that winged missiles and drones continued their assault on the warship for 9 hours and eventually forced it to retreat from the area of its operations to far north in the Red Sea.

The Yemen-based rebels pose a lingering threat, and some security analysts argue that their patrons in Tehran should be in Israel’s crosshairs.
