US Central Command (CENTCOM) has pushed back against reports that a US Navy helicopter was lost over the Red Sea, stating that all American military aircraft and personnel across the Middle East are safe and accounted for.
The denial, reported by Russian state news agency TASS, comes amid heightened military activity in the region, where US forces have maintained a presence to help protect shipping lanes and regional stability.
CENTCOM's statement did not elaborate on the origin of the reports it was responding to, offering only the brief reassurance that no aircraft or personnel losses had occurred.
The Red Sea has remained a focal point of military tension in recent years, with US and allied forces periodically operating in the area. No further details were immediately available.
