Two US Navy pilots were shot down by their fellow soldiers following a ‘friendly fire’ incident in the Red Sea.
The pilots were shot down accidentally over the Red Sea on Sunday in an area where the US troops have been stationed to target Houthi rebels in Yemen.
After being taken down, the two pilots were recovered alive as they had ejected themselves from the damaged aircraft, the news agency AP reports.
