In a dramatic turn of events in the Red Sea, U.S. Navy helicopters engaged in a fierce battle with Houthi rebels from Yemen earlier today. Responding to a distress call from a cargo ship that was under attack by four Houthi boats, the American choppers found themselves fired upon by the Iran-backed rebels.
According to U.S. Central Command, the Navy helicopters promptly retaliated, managing to sink three out of the four enemy vessels. Unfortunately, the crews aboard those boats did not survive the encounter. In the aftermath of the clash, the Houthis claimed that they lost ten fighters during the exchange.
