The U.S. has reportedly lost its sixth MQ-9 Reaper drone to Yemeni rebel forces since October 2023, with the latest shootdown claimed by Houthis in Marib province.
While the U.S. denied the loss, visual evidence showed the downed $30 million drone.
These recurring incidents highlight the rebels' growing capabilities against U.S. assets and the vulnerability of advanced drones in contested airspaces.
Yemeni forces have downed yet another U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone in Al-Jawf, marking their third successful hit in ten days. Each drone costs $33 million, bringing total U.S. drone losses near $600 million. The New York Times reports $200 million spent in munitions in just two weeks—with “limited success.” As U.S. airstrikes intensify across Sanaa and beyond, Yemen’s military vows to continue resistance, calling the strikes a response to “American aggression” War costs could skyrocket further if the current pace continues.

A new phase of war is unfolding in Yemen as Houthi rebels claim another direct strike on the USS Harry S. Truman and multiple US warships in the Red Sea. The escalation follows a barrage of $200 million worth of US airstrikes across Yemen in the past three weeks. Despite high-impact weaponry, the Houthi forces have responded with downed MQ-9 drones and intensified attacks. As U.S. forces retaliate with fresh strikes on military sites in Sa'ada (April 4), the region inches dangerously close to full-scale war with no end in sight.

US Warplanes, Drones Rain Fire in Yemen: The United States launched its most intense bombing campaign yet in Yemen, with over 100 airstrikes targeting 80 Houthi military and infrastructure sites across multiple regions. Warplanes and drones rained fire over the capital Sanaa, Hodeida, Saada, Amran, Marib, and al-Jawf, triggering deafening explosions and sending plumes of smoke into the sky. Local reports indicate severe damage, with a mosque in Sanaa hit and communication networks disrupted. This marks a significant escalation in US military action, shifting from targeting launch sites to striking key Houthi personnel and urban centers. The Houthis claim at least 57 people have been killed, while the US military remains tight-lipped about the full extent of the campaign.
