US President Donald Trump has shared a video of Houthi militants being bombed in Yemen.
The black-and-white footage shows a munition falling on a circle of people in rural ruins.
No one can be seen in the aftermath of the alleged attack.
Trump posted the clip on X and wrote: “These Houthis gathered for instructions on an attack. Oops, there will be no attack by these Houthis!
“They will never sink our ships again!”
However, some social media users pointed out that the people in the video were Yemeni civilians and not rebels.
This comes after Houthi rebels in Yemen shot down another US MQ-9 Reaper drone.
According to the Congressional Research Service, the drones cost approximately $30 million each.
This is the third such drone the rebels have shot down since March 3 and the second shot down since the US began conducting daily strikes.
