Dozens of Houthi drones shot down in the Red Sea

The United States, United Kingdom and French military have shot down dozens of drones in the Red Sea. This comes as the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels target shipping in the area. US Central Command estimates it downed at least 28 un-crewed aircraft in the region. The Houthis have been attacking ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden in a campaign they claim is in solidarity with Palestinians. This comes as more than 30,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks on the region since the Hamas October 7 attacks, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.
