Iran-Backed Houthis Add Insult To Injury Amid Red Sea Blitz; Down 8th American MQ-9 Reaper Drone

Yemen-based Houthi rebels claimed that they shot down an MQ-9 reaper drone of the US military on September 7. Houthis said the US drone was shot down after it was conducting hostile activities over the airspace of the Marib governorate in Yemen. However, the US military told the Associated Press that it was aware of the claim but has “received no reports” of American military drones being downed over Yemen.
