The Department of Justice (DOJ) has arrested and charged four foreign nationals for illegally transporting suspected Iranian-made weapons to Houthi rebels. The operation, which took place in the Arabian Sea, successfully intercepted a shipment of weapons destined for Yemen.

The interdiction of the Iranian-made weapons was a daring and successful mission, but tragically resulted in the death of two U.S. Navy SEALs. Navy Special Warfare Operator First Class Christopher J. Chambers and Special Warfare Operator Second Class Nathan Gage Ingram lost their lives during the operation.
