Houthis Declare ‘Total Ban’ on Israeli Shipping in Red Sea
The Houthis, an Iran-backed militant group that controls much of Yemen, said they had carried out a missile attack on central Israel and declared a “complete and total ban” on Israeli maritime navigation in the Red Sea, warning that Israeli-linked vessels would be treated as military targets. Israel’s military said one missile fired from Yemen was intercepted by air defenses after sirens sounded in Tel Aviv and other parts of central Israel.
The missile launch was the first reported attack from Yemen since an April 8 ceasefire and revived a threat to traffic through the Bab al-Mandab Strait. Shipping executives cited by the Financial Times said the latest warning was unlikely to cause a major additional disruption because most shipping lines were already avoiding the area, with passage through the strait already at least 50% below pre-2023 levels.
