The Houthi group in Yemen has stated that if the U.S. president continues to create obstacles to peace between Tehran and Washington, they may consider closing the Bab al-Mandab Strait. The Houthis have called on Trump and other involved parties to immediately end all actions and policies that hinder the peace process.
The Bab al-Mandab Strait is a strategically important maritime route for global trade, especially for the transportation of crude oil and other fuel supplies. It connects the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden and provides passage for commercial ships heading toward the Suez Canal.
