Abu Aqoula Warns of Bab al-Mandeb Disruptions
Approximately 28% of Jordan's foreign trade depends on the Bab el-Mandeb route, with import values reaching around $6.6 billion annually, in addition to over $2 billion worth of exports. The President of the Association of Customs Clearing and Cargo Transport Companies indicated that disruptions along this route affect shipping and insurance costs, as well as the delivery times of goods. Jordan is working to maintain smooth shipping operations and the continuity of its import activities. The efficiency of the Aqaba Port has been improved, with the average container stay decreasing from 15 to 12 days, and the daily operational capacity increasing from 900 to 1,200 containers, despite security challenges in the region that mainly impact costs and transit times.
