一 | The USS Carney, a U.S. Navy guided-missile destroyer in the northern Red Sea, on Thursday shot down multiple missiles and drones launched by Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen that the Pentagon said were potentially headed toward targets in Israel.It is the first time in recent memory that a U.S. Navy ship in the Middle East has engaged missiles and drones that were not directly aimed at the vessel.It's also the first U.S. military action taken to defend Israel in the current crisis and with the U.S. and other countries trying to contain the conflict between Israel and Hamas, the possibility that an Iranian-backed proxy group fired missiles and drones at Israel is sure to increase growing regional tensions.The ship was in the northern Red Sea on Thursday evening local time when it intercepted three land attack cruise missiles and several drones, Pentagon spokesman Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder said at a press briefing. U.S. officials told ABC News that the Carney had brought down eight drones launched by the Houthis.The preliminary U.S. assessment was that the USS Carney was not the target of any of the Houthi missiles or drones, according to multiple U.S. officials."We cannot say for certain what these missiles and drones were targeting but they were launched from Yemen heading north along the Red Sea potentially to targets in Israel," said Ryder who added that information about the engagements was still being processed.It’s unclear from where the Houthi militia's missiles were fired but they were headed in a northerly direction, an official said.The Houthis are an Iranian-backed Shiite movement that has seized control over much of northern Yemen and has been at war with recent years while Yemen has been at war with a Saudi-led coalition since 2015.As part of that conflict, the Houthis have launched missiles and drones deep into Saudi Arabia, but it appears that the missiles intercepted on Thursday were not aimed at targets inside Saudi Arabia.Last week, Houthi leader Abdel-Malek al-Houthi was quoted as saying that if the U.S. directly intervened in the Gaza conflict his group would respond by firing drones and missiles, and take other military options."There are red lines when it comes to Gaza," he said.Thursday's incident occurred during the early evening hours (local time) when the missiles and drones were detected moving northward above the waters of the Red Sea.The missiles fired by the Houthis were engaged by SM2 missiles carried aboard the USS Carney, a U.S. official told ABC News. No information was released about what weapons platform aboard the Carney brought down the 8 drones.Brig. Gen. Ryder told reporters that the intercepts had taken place over water and not land. No sailors aboard the ship were harmed according to a U.S. official.The United States has boosted its military presence in the region since the start of the Israel-Hamas war nearly two weeks ago.The USS Carney is part of the USS Gerald R. Ford carrier strike group that was deployed to the eastern Mediterranean to deter Iran and Hezbollah from joining the Israel-Hamas war. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin recently extended the deployment of the Ford strike group so it can remain in the eastern Mediterranean and had ordered the deployment of additional fighter aircraft to U.S. airbases in the region.To increase U.S. deterrence of an expansion in the conflict the Ford will soon be joined in the eastern Mediterranean by the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower carrier strike group that left Norfolk, Virginia on Saturday and could arrive in the region over the next 7 to 10 days."By posturing these U.S. naval assets and advanced fighter aircraft in the region, we aim to send a strong message intended to deter a wider conflict to bolster regional stability and of course to make it clear that we will protect and defend our national security interests," Ryder told reporters Thursday.The USS Carney had just transited into the Red Sea through the Suez Canal on Wednesday which is why the destroyer was still located in the northern stretch of that body of water that borders, Egypt, Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen.The missile shot down by the USS Carney will bolster the deterrence in the region and demonstrate that the show of force is serious stuff, a senior U.S. official told ABC News.The risk to U.S. forces and U.S. interests in the region has increased particularly in the wake of a deadly explosion at a hospital in Gaza earlier this week that inflamed regional tensions.On Wednesday, three drones were shot down by U.S. military forces as they neared bases in western and northern Iraq, another drone was shot down near U.S. forces in eastern Syria on Thursday.A U.S. contractor sheltering in place at one of the bases in Iraq died of a cardiac arrest in one of the incidents.Al Asad airbase in western Iraq experienced indirect fire on Thursday according to a U.S. official.The Carney's shootdown of Houthi missiles opens up the possibility that the U.S. Navy may have to position more ships in the Red Sea if the U.S. commits to protecting Israel from a southern attack said Steve Ganyard, an ABC News contributor and a former Pentagon official."The larger concern is if Iran now considers U.S. ships fair game," said Ganyard. "Because if the Houthis shoot at a U.S. ship there will be little doubt that it would have been at Tehran’s direction.""That said, there is nothing to suggest, no known reason to believe that Iran wants a fight with the U.S. and/or Israel," said Ganyard. "So, hopefully things calm down."ABC News' Martha Raddatz contributed to this report.。 每天走够11000步或可将寿命延长11年！如何正确健步走？冬季不方便外出可以进行什么运动？快跟着小编来看看～01 走路是“长寿药”又添新证据2024年3月，《英国运动医学杂志》上发表的一项研究显示：当每天走路步数超过2200步时，就可以降低死亡风险和心血管疾病风险；当每天走路步数达到9000~10500步时，无论坐多久，死亡风险最低。2024年11月，《英国运动医学杂志》上发表的另一项研究则显示，40岁以后，对于运动量最小的人，每天以4.8公里/小时的速度步行111分钟（约为11000步），或同等运动量的其他运动，或可将寿命延长11年。02 健步走行动清单照着走▼健步走正确姿势：健步走时步幅要比正常走路步幅大一些，多出半个脚掌即可。步态要轻盈，脚落地时膝盖微屈，脚后跟到脚尖过渡要顺畅，同时身体重心迅速跟随移动。▼健步走用什么速度走？健步走速度可以控制在每秒走2~3步，每分钟走120~144步左右，这样有助于提高心率，激活心肺功能。
二 | ▼健步走，走多久合适？在健步走的过程中，感觉到呼吸急促、身上微微发汗的时候，保持这感觉20~30分钟以上，才能够对心肺起到作用，每周可以进行3~6次健步走。▼什么时候健步走更合适？早上或晚上健步走都可以，只要保护膝关节不受凉。
三 | 如果是用餐后进行健步走，应休息半小时至一小时再开始。
四 | ▼健步走的场地如何选择？健步走时，最好选择在公园、体育场等安静又干净的地方，以及有弹性的塑胶跑道，并且选择带有气囊、气垫的运动鞋。
五 | 03 走路时搭配这几个动作效果加倍▼走路敲一敲：减腰围走路时加些动作能帮助减腰围。比如敲带脉穴，从肚脐向后横着捋，掐腰，找到身体左右侧中缝的位置。▼走路弓着步：帮助控糖患有糖尿病的患者，多做屈步走能够帮助降糖。先向前迈出一大步，然后前腿弯曲，呈弓箭步，让大腿与地面平行，坚持一两秒钟，然后再往前走换另一条腿。▼走路抬抬手：放松肩颈很多人长时间处于低头状态，这样易造成肩颈肌肉疲劳。走路时可以向上张开双臂，这样能帮助放松肩颈。▼走路扭一扭：改善便秘在走路过程中，可以加大腰、胯部的扭动，这样能帮助缓解便秘。04 冬季不方便外出？试试室内超慢跑在家试试超慢跑，每周3~5次，每次30分钟，帮你提升心肺功能、改善高血压、调控血糖。▼超慢跑4个要点1.前脚掌着地；2.膝盖要微弯；3.落地脚要轻；4.小步高频次。编辑：奚宇轩资料：CCTV生活圈特别声明：本文经上观新闻客户端的“上观号”入驻单位授权发布，仅代表该入驻单位观点，“上观新闻”仅为信息发布平台，如您认为发布内容侵犯您的相关权益，请联系删除!。
