Throughout last week Yemen missiles rained down on military targets in Tel Aviv.
In response Israel bombed civilian targets in Sanaa Yemen. Targeting power stations an the port.
When this still did not stop the strikes on Tel Aviv the US launched airstrikes on Yemen resulting in the accidental friendly fire shoot down of two Navy airmen and their F/A-18 Super Hornet.
The Houthi's released this video recapping the week.

In their full remarks Yemen forces actually take credit for directly shooting down the US fighter jet. They say Yemen forces waited for the US to begin attacking them from a carrier group. The Yemen military then targeted the US fighter jets and their waiting aircraft carrier group with waves of drones and missiles.
@nullagent If they made the americans so nervous they started shooting at everything and hit their own plane I that doesn't FORMALLY count as a kill but for all practical purposes whoever controlled those drones can paint a tiny US flag on their drone control station. Four more makes them an unofficial ace. Might be one pilot per drone and thus shared credit.
For fighter pilots and now drone pilots, enemy lives DO matter, they're how you keep score! Traditionally this can be a very serious matter to the point of being one reason for gun cameras on warplanes.
