BREAKING: Navy SEALs 'Missing' Since Last Week After Biden Orders Nighttime Raid On Iranian Ship

Last Thursday, a group of Navy SEALs, one of America's most elite groups of soldiers, carried out a risky nighttime operation in the Gulf of Aden to intercept a vessel carrying missile parts from Iran to Yemen as Houthi rebels continued to bombard international shipping in the area. During the operation, however, two SEALs went "missing."

According to U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), the operation was carried out amid rough seas, which led to one SEAL falling into the water. Following this, another member of the team, following military protocol, jumped in to save his fellow SEAL. The members of the SEAL team did go on to find missile parts bound for the Houthi rebels from Iran, including "Iranian-made ballistic missile and cruise missiles components" that provide propulsion and guidance for mid-range ballistic missiles.

According to ABC News, search and rescue operations have been underway for multiple days, with the U.S. Navy leading the search. "Navy forces conducted a nighttime seizure of a dhow conducting illegal transport of advanced lethal aid from Iran to resupply Houthi forces in Yemen as part of the Houthis' ongoing campaign of attacks against international merchant shipping," CENTCOM said in a statement. The SEALs "executed a complex boarding of the dhow near the coast of Somalia in international waters of the Arabian Sea seizing Iranian-made ballistic missile and cruise missiles components."

"I don't think people grasp how big of a deal this is," wrote Townhall writer John Hasson. "Biden used SEALs. Meaning it was a surgical op, planned ahead of time, and meant to AVOID public attention. His refusal to openly oppose Iran might've just killed two SOF members."

The world under President Biden is becoming increasingly more dangerous and has resulted in American service members being put in harm's way repeatedly. From the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan that led to the deaths of 13 soldiers and marines to repeated attacks on American troops in Iraq and now to the potential loss of two Navy SEALs, Biden's lack of global leadership is putting lives at risk.
