The United States, United Kingdom and French military have shot down dozens of drones in the Red Sea.
This comes as the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels target shipping in the area.
US Central Command estimates it downed at least 28 un-crewed aircraft in the region.
The Houthis have been attacking ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden in a campaign they claim is in solidarity with Palestinians.
This comes as more than 30,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks on the region since the Hamas October 7 attacks, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.
