Coalition vows to protect Bab el-Mandeb shipping
The coalition forces have fully affirmed their support for commercial ships passing through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, and have taken decisive operational measures to protect them in accordance with international law and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. They also noted that the Houthi militia is making false claims about closing Yemeni ports and airports, clarifying that more than 300 ships carrying food and fuel have entered the ports of Hodeidah, Salif, and Ras Issa during the first half of 2026. The Houthis are responsible for the destruction of Sana'a Airport and for refusing to resume flights. Saudi Arabia emphasized that its stance aims to achieve peace in Yemen, supports United Nations efforts, and affirms that it will continue to protect its ships in accordance with international law, as threats from the Houthis against maritime navigation in the Red Sea are increasing.
