On 13 January 2024, the USS Carney, an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer in the United States Navy, launched Tomahawk cruise missiles against the Houthi movement.[2][1][3] The missile hit and destroyed a radar facility at the Houthi-controlled al-Dailami Air Base in Yemen.[4] This was done as a “follow-on action” to the large scale missile strikes conducted by a United States-United Kingdom-led coalition the day before.[2]
