Houthis deny plan to tax ships in Bab al-Mandeb
The Humanitarian Operations Coordination Center affiliated with the Houthis in Yemen denied reports claiming that they intend to impose fees on commercial ships passing through the Bab El Mandeb Strait, confirming that crossing this strategic passage remains free of charge. They clarified that the secure transit service for ships is provided free of charge and does not require any payments, urging shipping companies not to pay any fees to unauthorized parties. These statements come in response to reports by Reuters News indicating discussions between the Houthis and Iran about imposing fees on ships in the southern Red Sea, following their maritime blockade of Saudi Arabia.
