    Nothing is passing to the Mediterranean ports via Suez either. It is serious enough that Israel thinks of attacking Yemen https://www.cnn.com/2023/12/09/middleeast/israel-houthi-yemen-warning-intl-hnk/index.html

          Thats assuming Yemen is capable of stopping all israeli traffic through the red sea. Best they can do is make it risky, which is effective, but not total. Pretty sure the US has bases in Djbouti for this exact reason.

            You should see how Zim responded when a Yemen-gov account tweeted "ZIM" https://twitter.com/army21ye/status/1728421437570998366

            Zim (NYSE: ZIM), whose stock hit a new all-time low Monday, is the most visible of the Israeli shipping companies and the most closely connected with the government. The government of Israel has a “golden share” or “special state share” in the company that ensures the government’s access to Zim’s fleet “in a time of emergency or for national security purposes.”
