Red Sea: Moment British warship HMS Diamond shoots down Houthi drone
Footage released by the UK's Ministry of Defence shows the moment a British war ship shot down a Houthi drone in the Red Sea.
The drone was targeting the vessel, with the ministry describing the attack as illegal and completely unacceptable.
Earlier this week, the US and UK launched joint air strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen.
The Houthis said they would continue their attacks on shipping until there was a ceasefire in Gaza.
