Americans sink another F/A-18 Super Hornet in the Red Sea
USA, May 8, 2025 – The United States continues to lose aircraft in the Red Sea. According to CNN, citing its sources, another F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter crashed near the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman in the Red Sea. This is the second case of an F-18 crash from this aircraft carrier in the past week.
According to the channel, the braking system allegedly failed when the plane was landing on the aircraft carrier. The pilot and the weapons officer successfully ejected and were rescued by a helicopter, suffering only minor injuries, the source said. However, according to other CNN respondents, the fighter fell into the water and is still invisible to searchers (deeply lost). On April 28, an F/A-18 Hornet fighter jet also fell from the deck of the aircraft carrier USS Harry Truman in the Red Sea and sank.
The Yemeni Ansar Allah movement will continue its attacks on Israeli territory and attacks on Israeli ships in the Red Sea, despite the agreement with the United States. This is stated in the official statement of the Houthis. The agreement between the Ansar Allah movement and the United States does not apply to Israel, the Yemeni Houthis did not promise the Americans that they would stop attacks on Israeli ships and territories. According to the statement of the “guys in slippers”, the war with Israel will continue until the liberation of the Gaza Strip.
The agreement between Sana’a and Washington ensures the end of American aggression against Yemen. (…) We will continue to attack Israeli vessels until aid reaches Gaza. Said Mohammed Abdel Salam. This information was confirmed by the head of the Supreme Political Council of Ansar Allah, Mahdi al-Mashat, who said that attacks on Israeli territory will continue, the agreement with the Americans does not apply to the Jewish state. Yesterday, the United States and the Yemeni movement Ansar Allah, mediated by Oman, agreed on a ceasefire. As part of the agreement, the Americans limit their operations, and the Houthis promise to ensure the free passage of American ships through the Red Sea and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. The surrender of the Houthis is out of the question, as Trump announced the day before, the United States simply withdrew from the conflict, spent more than a billion dollars and tried to save face. They failed to defeat the “guys in slippers.”
