Houthis consider imposing fees for Red Sea passage: Report

Yemen's Houthis are considering imposing fees on maritime traffic through the Bab el-Mandeb gateway, according to a Reuters report. Saudi Arabia has used this route as an alternative to the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran has blocked for US-allied vessels since March. The Houthis recently attacked a Saudi tanker, and the potential fees could pressure the Trump administration to end its war on Iran.
