The Crisis in the Red Sea<\/b><\/p>\n

Amidst the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the Red Sea region has emerged as a new flashpoint of crisis. The Red Sea is a maritime chokepoint situated between the African continent and the Arabian Peninsula, connecting the Mediterranean Sea via the Suez Canal to the Indian Ocean. It handles 30% of global maritime container traffic and 12% of world trade in goods. In the wake of the Russia-Ukraine war, traffic through the Red Sea has surged further, with Russian oil exports increasing more than 14-fold compared to pre-war levels.<\/p>\n

Since November 2023, the Houthi rebels in Yemen have threatened and attacked Israeli and Western vessels, starting with the seizure of a British-owned cargo ship. By late February 2024, they had struck around 50 merchant ships and a few naval vessels operating in the area. The Houthis are a Zaidi Shia armed movement based in northern Yemen that gained power by resisting government forces during the Yemeni Civil War.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
After the 2011 Arab Spring and the ousting of President Saleh, the Houthis captured the capital Sanaa and expanded their influence. Subsequently, as a Saudi-led coalition supported the Yemeni government and Iran backed the Houthis, the civil war took on the appearance of a Saudi-Iranian proxy conflict. During the 2023 Israel-Hamas war, the “Axis of Resistance” Shia forces like Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Houthis became overtly hostile toward Israel, reportedly receiving military and financial aid from Iran.<\/p>\n

This Red Sea crisis is having global repercussions. Firstly, the blockade is disrupting worldwide logistics and supply chains. Shipping companies have had to reroute voyages, driving up freight costs and exacerbating inflation from logistical gridlock. Secondly, major undersea internet cables laid across the Red Sea bed are at risk. According to The Wall Street Journal, these fiber-optic cables carry around 17% of global internet traffic. Recent Houthi strikes damaged cables off Yemen’s coast, severing Djibouti’s internet access for two days. Repairing such cables is perilous and requires specialized ships, worrying the telecommunications industry. Thirdly, the sinking of the British cargo vessel Rubiamahro after a Houthi attack Februry 2024 has sparked fears of an environmental disaster, as the chemical fertilizer it was carrying could cause severe marine pollution.<\/p>\n
