WorldBab el-Mandeb faces growing threat as Houthi attacks fuel fears of a second Hormuz

Iran-backed Houthi attacks on shipping through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait are intensifying concerns that the waterway could become another Strait of Hormuz. The Houthis struck the Egyptian-owned cargo ship Tihamah, killing four crew members and two Yemeni rescuers. Analysts say naval forces alone may not eliminate threats from Houthi-held territory in Yemen.
