A US military MQ-9 drone was shot down in Yemen’s Dhamar governorate, southeast of the Houthi-controlled capital Sanaa, Reuters reported two US officials as saying on Wednesday.
The officials confirmed that the drone was shot down late on Tuesday.
A Houthi military spokesman had earlier been quoted by the rebels’ Al-Masirah TV as saying that their air defenses had brought down a US drone.
In June, the US military said that Houthi rebels had shot down a US government-operated drone “with assistance from Iran.”
