Houthis claim second attack on US ships in retaliation for strikes
Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels claimed responsibility on Monday for a second attack on an American aircraft carrier group in 24 hours, calling it retaliation for U.S. strikes.
A spokesperson for the group said "for the second time in 24 hours" Houthi fighters launched missiles and drones at the USS Harry S. Truman and several of its warships in the northern Red Sea.
