Yemen's Houthi rebel group has attacked commercial ships in the Bab-el-Mandeb strait, disrupting global shipping routes between the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. The attacks, cited as protest against Israel's war in Gaza, have led to shipping diversions around Africa, causing supply chain delays and higher costs.
