Video Shows Celebrations on US MQ-9 Reaper Drone 'Downed By Houthis'
==========
A video shows Houthi rebels celebrating the downing of a US MQ-9 Reaper drone in Yemen; the drone is the sixth one downed by the Houthis; the video has not been independently verified; the US Air Force has not lost any aircraft operating within US Central Command's area of responsibility; the drone was largely intact, suggesting it was not destroyed by an explosion; the drone was targeted with a surface-to-air missile; the Houthis have accelerated their attacks on shipping in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden in response to the Israel-Hamas war; the US may need to reassess its drone operations and consider increased protective measures.
