On the evening of the 16th local time, Yemeni Houthi armed forces military spokesman Yahya Sarea said in a speech that the Houthi armed forces once again attacked the USS Harry S. Truman and its fleet in the northern Red Sea, using missiles and drones. This is the second time that the Houthi armed forces have attacked the same US aircraft carrier in the past 24 hours.

Sarea also said that the Houthi armed forces will target all US warships in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea, and continue to blockade Israeli ships.
