The article discusses the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz and the Bab el-Mandeb as critical passageways for approximately one-fifth of the world's oil and over ten percent of maritime trade. It focuses on the security and economic challenges that threaten the stability of energy supplies and international commerce. The article notes that disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz lead to sharp increases in oil prices and shipping costs, as its complete closure would cut off more than 16 million barrels per day with no immediate alternative solutions. Meanwhile, the Bab el-Mandeb is considered a costly alternative but offers more flexible options with greater maneuverability. Analyses indicate that Hormuz poses a direct threat to global energy security, while the Bab el-Mandeb, despite its risks, can be compensated for more effectively, albeit at higher costs. This ongoing tension in both straits exposes markets to significant risks and sharp economic fluctuations.
