US says it destroyed 7 Houthi drones, ground control station in Yemen
[IsraelTimes] The US military says that it destroyed seven Iran's Houthi sock puppets
...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him...
drones and one ground control station vehicle in Houthi-controlled Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...

#3 Asymmetrical warfare. All these drones/missiles cost less than one ships cargo (the lives of Houthis are worth 0)

#5 They're far past line-of-site. Find the radar sites and Iranian surveillance radar ships and destroy them. I doubt Houthis have "homemade satellites" for targeting info
