Yemen’s Houthi authorities have warned they may close the Bab al-Mandeb Strait if U.S. policies continue to hinder peace efforts, according to Al Jazeera.
Deputy Foreign Minister Hussein al-Ezzi said the group could shut the strategic waterway, urging U.S. President Donald Trump to change course.
The Bab al-Mandeb Strait, linking the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden, is a vital global shipping route and a key gateway to the Suez Canal
