Yemeni Houthi extremists have argued responsibility for recent attacks on US warships in the Red Sea.
The terrorist group claimed in a statement released by the Jerusalem Post on Tuesday that they attacked the USS Harry S. Truman airlines and several US warships in the Red Sea.
Earlier on Wednesday, Houthis said it used drones to target US ships and Israeli military locations.

Earlier this month, Houthis claimed it had attacked Truman and his warships in response to a US attack on Yemen, but it provided no evidence to support its claims of retaliation.
The US military had fired down several Houthi drones shortly before the group's claims.
This comes after several Trump administration officials discussed plans for future military strikes against Houthis in group chats on encrypted messaging services signals.
The group, dubbed the “Houthi PC Small Group,” featured top Trump officials discussing what many found to be an upcoming attack on Houthis.

Goldberg reported that 18 people were listed in the group, including Waltz, Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of State Pete Hegseth, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, Director of National Intelligence, Director of Tarsi Gabbard and Chief of White House Susie Wills.
The article noted that authorities are discussing “war planning,” and said that Goldberg chose not to publish some of the highly sensitive information he saw in the signalling chat, including accurate information about weapons packages, targets and timing, due to the potential threats to national security and military operations.
The editor also said Ratcliffe put the CIA undercover agent's name into the signal chat.

The White House has confirmed that the group chat “seems real,” but administrative officials, including Hegseth, have downplayed concerns and are trying to trust Goldberg as a reporter.
“I have heard how it was characterized, no one had texted the war plan.
Hegstes said that Goldberg was “a deceived and highly discredited, so-called journalist who has made hoaxes over and over again, and I don't know that it includes hoaxes or suckers and losers from Russia, Russia, Russia or both.
