Last update: 11 hours agoRed Sea Disruption: Yemen’s Prime Minister Shaya Zindani condemned Houthi attacks on Red Sea commercial shipping, calling it an “Iranian agenda” and urging a tougher international deterrent stance to protect maritime corridors. Shipping & Energy Logistics: Kpler data shows Bab el-Mandeb traffic plunged after Houthis struck Saudi oil installations, with only 11 commodity vessels passing on Sunday (the lowest in months), while Strait of Hormuz transit stayed severely restricted. Oil Market Impact: Oil slid sharply as the US and Iran paused strikes over the weekend—Brent fell about 5% to around $91.9 and WTI about 5.2% to $84.6—though shipping volumes remain far below normal. Regional Diplomacy: Iran signaled it would halt retaliatory attacks if the US pause holds, while Oman hosted new Hormuz talks, offering a narrow window for de-escalation. Local Energy Costs (Yemen-linked region): Rising supply-risk fears are keeping LPG/CNG/PNG pricing in focus, with fuel costs sensitive to any further chokepoint disruption.
