Gen. Alexus Grynkewich, who heads U.S. Air Forces Central, said that the persistent American retaliatory strikes on the Iran-backed militia group have \u201ccertainly affected their behavior. Their pace of operations is not what it was.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But on the same day as Grynkewich\u2019s comments, U.S. Central Command reported that the Navy destroyer Gravely shot down a missile and multiple drones that were targeting the American warship.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/navytimes\/news\/your-navy\/2024\/04\/04\/navy-destroyer-gravely-takes-out-houthi-drones-missile-in-the-red-sea\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"180\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/gravely.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Navy destroyer Gravely takes out Houthi drones, missile in the Red Sea<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">The Navy destroyer Gravely and U.S. forces destroyed drones and a missile fired toward the U.S. ship by Houthi militants.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Houthis have been conducting near daily attacks on commercial and military ships in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, launching drones and missiles from rebel-held areas of Yemen. The attacks \u2014 which are often unsuccessful but at times have struck the ships \u2014 have disrupted a crucial shipping route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In response, the U.S. and allies have been forced to increase their military presence along the waterway, and on several occasions have launched wider retaliatory strikes on ammunition, weapons and other facilities. U.S. ships and fighter jets have also been routinely bombing Houthi drones and missiles that are in place and preparing to launch.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/navytimes\/news\/your-navy\/2024\/02\/12\/all-the-houthi-us-navy-incidents-in-the-middle-east-that-we-know-of\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/8198875.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">All the Houthi-US Navy incidents in the Middle East (that we know of)<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">A non-exhaustive, running list of Houthi attacks in the Middle East and the U.S. strikes back at them.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grynkewich said it\u2019s difficult to know exactly how much the Houthis\u2019 weapons supplies have been eroded by the U.S. strikes, because officials didn\u2019t have a detailed intelligence assessment of their capabilities before the attacks began.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe challenge for us is understanding what the denominator was at the beginning. In other words, what did they have on hand to start with? We obviously know how much we have struck and we have assessments of how successful those strikes were.\u201d he said. &#8221; The other complicating factor is Iranian resupply.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said the U.S. believes the Houthis had dozens of anti-ship ballistic missiles when they started, and they\u2019ve launched dozens. So understanding how much Iran is able to restock the group is key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Houthis have defended their campaign as an effort to pressure&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/israel-hamas-war\">Israel to end its war on Hamas<\/a>&nbsp;in the Gaza Strip. The ships they\u2019ve targeted, however, have largely had little or no connection to Israel, the U.S. or other nations involved in the war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking to reporters, Grynkewich said the Houthis are more independent and more difficult for Iran to control than other Tehran-backed militias in Iraq and Syria. Those groups have largely paused their attacks on U.S. forces at bases in Iraq and Syria since early February, when the U.S. launched a massive retaliatory assault against the groups and sites connected to Iran\u2019s Revolutionary Guard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">U.S. officials have said they believe pressure from Iran was part of the reason for the pause. But Grynkewich said the Houthis are \u201cnot quite as responsive\u201d to Iranian direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said that even if Iran tried to crack down on the Houthis or cut off weapons or other supplies, it would take time for that to have an effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><i>Navy Times Editor Geoff Ziezulewicz contributed to this report.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The head of U.S. Air Forces Central said Wednesday that a slowing of Houthi attacks may indicate they are running low on missiles and drones.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":81742,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":65,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":{"2":{"categories":["your-military","flashpoints","israel-palestine","news"],"primary_category":"your-military"}}},"categories":[8,12,65],"tags":[],"coauthors":[1354],"class_list":["post-45908","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-flashpoints","category-news","category-your-navy"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"24PY7EJ6HFDFDOJRN6JMGAUFUQ","arc_canonical_url":"\/news\/your-navy\/2024\/04\/04\/houthis-may-be-running-low-on-weapons-stocks-us-commander-says\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Houthis may be running low on weapons stocks, U.S. commander says - Navy Times<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The head of U.S. Air Forces Central said Wednesday that a slowing of Houthi attacks may indicate they are running low on missiles and drones.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Houthis may be running low on weapons stocks, U.S. commander says\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The head of U.S. Air Forces Central said Wednesday that a slowing of Houthi attacks may indicate they are running low on missiles and drones.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/navytimes\/news\/your-navy\/2024\/04\/04\/houthis-may-be-running-low-on-weapons-stocks-us-commander-says\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Navy Times\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-04-04T14:55:15+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-08-08T20:02:21+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Lolita C.
