Yemen's Houthis down US drone over Saada, sources tell Reuters

CAIRO (Reuters) - Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthi movement downed US drone “MQ-9” over the country's northern Saada province, two sources from the group told Reuters on Sunday.

The attack would be the first to be claimed by the Houthis since Israel carried out a retaliatory airstrike against the group in the port of Hodeidah.
