Houthi warnings cause 9 tankers to reroute
The Al Jazeera network reported that the Houthi movement in Yemen has imposed a blockade on navigation in the Red Sea, leading nine ships to turn back, including seven tankers that were en route to pass through the Bab al-Mandeb strait, following Houthi warnings of targeting vessels that do not comply. This blockade has caused vessels heading to Asia to avoid passing through the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, potentially forcing them to travel via the Suez Canal, which lengthens the journey and increases costs. Data shows that container ships, cargo ships, and sheep carriers coming from or heading to a Saudi port are passing through the strait, while oil tankers are refraining from crossing, reflecting the impact of these warnings on maritime navigation in the region.
