Red Sea Tensions Rise Amid Iran Conflict
The article discusses developments in the Red Sea and their impact on global trade. Expert Mohamed Al-Yemeni emphasizes that the competition there is linked to regional developments, including the conflict with Iran and pressures on vital waterways. He explains that the Houthis and Iran use threats to open or close the Bab al-Mandeb Strait and the Hormuz Strait as leverage, but they do not seek to shut them completely. As a result of these threats, some countries have had to reroute their shipping, which has increased transportation costs and extended voyage times, given that global trade relies on these passages up to 99%.
