- Several Saudi vessels have changed their declared destinations more than once during the past two weeks
- Some Saudi ships did not finalize their destinations until after passing south of South Africa
- The act of a shipping company rerouting its fleet around a maritime choke point, while keeping destinations unclear, is an indication of the risks posed by the maritime blockade imposed on it
