CNN Yemen has thwarted the ambitions of the Trump administration and the downing of Reaper drones has blinded Washington

In the skies of Yemen, where Washington had bet on a decisive air campaign, the reality was being shaped in a completely different way. While the US administration aspired to impose absolute air supremacy within thirty days, its drones collided with a wall of smart resistance and advanced defenses that forced them to retreat.
Exclusive Follow-ups – Al-Khabar Al-Yemeni:
According to an , the Yemeni armed forces succeeded in downing at least seven American MQ-9 Reaper drones during the first month of Trump’s military operation, which was a devastating blow to the second phase of the American plan, which was aimed at tracking down and killing senior leaders in the Yemeni forces.
The fall of the Strategy… in the Sky:
The first phase of the operation aimed to weaken Yemeni air defenses and destroy deterrence capabilities, paving the way for the transition to an intelligence phase involving precise monitoring and field analysis to identify the locations of prominent military commanders. However, the drones that were relied upon for these missions found themselves targeted one after the other.
American officials confirmed to CNN that the repeated losses of Reaper drones, which are the most advanced and costly, caused great confusion in the US Central Command and directly impeded the Pentagon’s ability to assess the impact of its strikes or limit the decline of the Yemeni military arsenal.
The Strikes Continue… And the Will Does Not Retreat:
Apart from the attrition the armed forces are facing, they are facing failure in achieving any successes, as the Yemeni armed forces, according to CNN, continue to launch a barrage of qualitative attacks, including 77 attack drones, 30 cruise missiles, 24 medium-range ballistic missiles, and 23 surface-to-air missiles, all of which targeted US forces, warships in the Red Sea, or targets related to Israel.
