One plane was hit, causing the pilot and navigator to eject and survive. A second jet narrowly escaped a missile, forcing evasive maneuvers. The Navy launched an investigation into the incident, which paused further airstrikes from the USS Harry S. Truman. This friendly-fire situation has raised concerns about training and coordination within military operations.

Yemen’s missile strikes have disrupted US-Israel strategy, says Iran’s FM. Yemen’s support for Palestine includes missile attacks on Israeli-occupied territories and US warships. Yemen remains self-reliant in its resistance, with Israel escalating strikes on Yemen infrastructure. The country continues direct military actions and has imposed a semi-blockade on Israel-linked ships.
