Blocajul din Ormuz tinde să se extindă pe o altă cale maritimă esențială. Vasele comerciale au început să facă cale întoarsă de teama atacurilor

The threat of a maritime blockade by Houthi rebels has caused commercial vessels to turn back near Bab el-Mandeb Strait, raising concerns about maritime traffic disruptions. Nine ships have reversed course due to fears of attacks, particularly affecting routes linking Asia and Europe. Some vessels had loaded oil products at the Saudi terminal in Yanbu, which has become vital after Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Despite the situation, traffic through Bab el-Mandeb continues, with 44 ships crossing on the day the blockade was announced.
