The Yemeni army said Saturday that the Houthi group launched missiles from the southwestern province of Taiz toward the Red Sea, Anadolu reports.

The announcement came in a statement by the Defense Ministry-affiliated Taiz Military Axis published on US social media platform X.

“Reconnaissance teams affiliated with our forces detected the terrorist Houthi militia launching missiles toward the Red Sea,” the statement said.

The missiles were launched from Mount Uman in the Al-Hawban area east of Taiz city, it added, without providing further details.

The Houthis issued no immediate response to the army’s statement.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed Thursday that it targeted Al-Azraq Air Base in Jordan’s eastern desert with ballistic missiles, destroying three F-35 fighter jets and heavily damaging three others, according to Iranian media, Anadolu reports.

In a statement, the IRGC said its aerospace forces struck the deployment ramp and maintenance hangar housing US F-35 fighter jets at Al-Azraq Air Base with several ballistic missiles, describing the attack as a response to a US strike on two residential homes on Iran’s Qeshm Island.

The IRGC claimed that three F-35 aircraft were completely destroyed, while three others sustained heavy damage.

It also claimed that several officers, as well as technical and maintenance personnel, were killed in the attack.

The statement came hours after a missile struck a house on Qeshm Island, injuring two people during a wave of US attacks across southern Iran, according to Mehr News Agency.

Earlier Thursday, the Jordanian army said it intercepted and downed five missiles launched from Iran toward the kingdom, marking the fourth consecutive day of such incidents.

On Wednesday, Jordan said it downed five missiles after intercepting one drone on Tuesday and two drones on Monday.

The developments came as the US Central Command (CENTCOM) said American forces launched strikes against Iran in response to what it described as attempted Iranian attacks on US forces in the Middle East a day earlier.
