Yemeni Forces Fire Missile At US Warplane Over Red Sea Amid Rising Tensions In The Middle East

Yemeni forces have reportedly fired a surface-to-air missile (SAM) at a US F-16 warplane flying over the Red Sea on February 19. According to Fox News, another missile targeted an advanced MQ-9 Reaper drone. The attack follows months of Yemeni operations against US and Israeli targets in response to the Gaza war. While the Pentagon claims the missiles missed, Yemen has successfully downed multiple US drones before.

Trump Refuses To Guarantee US Backup For British Troops In Ukraine | ‘UK Military Can Handle Itself’

US President Donald Trump has refused to guarantee American military support for British troops if the UK deploys forces to Ukraine as part of a potential peace deal with Russia. During his White House meeting with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Trump said the British military is strong enough to handle itself.
