A U.S. Navy destroyer on Sunday night was the target of a failed missile attack from territory in Yemen controlled by Iran-aligned Houthi rebels, a defense official said.

The USS Mason was in international waters in the southern end of the Red Sea off the coast of Yemen when it detected two inbound missiles over about an hour-long period beginning at 7 p.m. local time, the official said. Both missiles hit the water and did not cause any injuries to sailors or damage to the ship.
