Houthi fighters launched a missile and drone attack on US warships, including the USS Stockdale and USS Spruance, off Yemen's coast, but the US military successfully repelled the assault without any damage or casualties. The Houthis claimed to have targeted the US aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln and two destroyers, although the Pentagon reported no attacks on the carrier.
