US Navy helicopters sank three vessels operated by Yemen's Iran-backed Huthi rebels that had attacked a container ship in the Red Sea, the military said Sunday.
After the Huthis fired on the US helicopters, they "returned fire in self-defense, sinking three of the four small boats, and killing the crews. The fourth boat fled the area," the US Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a statement.
