JUST IN: Yemeni Houthis officially enter the war against the US and Israel in support of Iran, and threaten to shut the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. The narrow chokepoint between Yemen and Africa that handles 10% of all global seaborne oil trade.

Oil about to become gold
It’s not closed until a ship gets hit. For now, it’s just ‘closed’.
It will be very interesting to see how traffic reacts.
We already defeated them like 10 times. Someone should let them know.
This is getting exciting!
Now it’s a 16 point plan!
NATO is cowering
Lots more than oil goes through there. If they attack anything there the rest of the world might get involved.
What could go wrong /s
You will see less due to insurers saying hold up
JUST IN!!! LIke 8 hours ago? Can we stop posting this same tripe over and over and over again please?
Am I the only one who giggled at “Djibouti”?
Insurance premium about to go up.
Oh this is going to be interesting.
Well correct me if I am wrong …. but isnt it kinda atleast partially pointless – as it was the ships originating from the gulf states in the first place that were traveling through that on their way to europe. So If Strait of Hormuz is closed Bab al Mandeb is not such a big deal anymore.
As we can see the war is going very well.
I thought nobody was really using this route anymore anyway? Since the last time the Houthis did this I thought shops were avoiding it?
It’s time for the west to start erasing whole countries. Enough of this shit
Bravo, Trump….bravo.
