It takes one sophisticated retard to think any major power would let the towel monkeys in Yemen even come close to closing the Suez which is what cutting off Bab-al-mandeb would do. Gurantee you Egypt would immediately drop kick their shit.

>Example: In 2023, approximately 8.6 million barrels per day of crude oil, condensates, and refined petroleum products flowed through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). However, during the first eight months of 2024, this volume decreased by over 50 %, averaging 4.0 million barrels per day. This decline is primarily attributed to attacks by Houthi militias in Yemen, prompting many vessels to avoid this strategic route and opt for longer journeys around the Cape of Good Hope.
