🚨🇾🇪 The Houthis Turn Bab el-Mandeb Into an Email-Based Maritime Checkpoint
Following Iran's Persian Gulf Authority under IRGC, Yemen's Houthis are operating a clearance system for ships seeking safe passage through the strategic Red Sea chokepoint.
Vessels must demonstrate they have no links to Saudi Arabia, the U.S., U.K. or Israel to obtain transit assurances, routing instructions and navigation guidelines from the HOCC.
The requests are technically voluntary, but shipping companies increasingly seek clearance to avoid attacks.
The strategic irony: Commercial vessels are now emailing an armed movement for assurances while navigating one of the world's busiest maritime corridors.
