USS Mason Destroys Houthi-fired Missiles Towards Ship Near Yemen After Rebels Try To Board It

USS Mason shot down missiles fired from Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen at a tanker in the Red Sea. This is a second such attack on commercial vessels in the Red Sea in the last 24 hours. The Iran-backed Houthi rebels reportedly tried to board tanker Ardmore Encounter and then fired missiles at it when they failed. The USS Mason was responding to a distress call from the attacked Marshall Islands-flagged tanker. Watch for more details.
