Houthis take to social media in bizarre offensive against US Navy

Yemen's Houthi rebels have repeatedly claimed that they hit or sank the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower in an online misinformation campaign as the aircraft carrier fights in the Red Sea.

That's put its leader, Capt. Christopher "Chowdah" Hill, and his social media profile directly in what has become an increasingly bizarre internet front line as the campaign goes on. And while he shrugs off his posts, they represent the new level of information warfare the Navy is having to fight as it faces its most intense combat since World War II and tries to keep the morale of the nearly 5,000 personnel aboard the Eisenhower high and munitions ready as their deployment stretches on.
