Houthis deny charges on ships at Bab el-Mandeb
The Houthis in Yemen denied expectations that they intend to impose fees on commercial ships passing through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, emphasizing that passage through this strategic waterway remains free, with safe and voluntary transit. This was stated in a statement from the group, which called on shipping companies not to pay any fees or provide information to unauthorized entities. Meanwhile, reports have emerged that the Houthis, who are allied with Iran, are studying the possibility of imposing fees on ships following a naval blockade on Saudi Arabia, amid fears of an escalation in military action that threatens one of the most vital maritime routes for oil transportation.
