AGP Executive Report
Last update: 5 hours agoRed Sea Security: Saudi Arabia has launched a 14-state Multinational Maritime Defense Alliance (MMDA) led from Riyadh to protect shipping across the Red Sea, Bab al-Mandeb and the Gulf of Aden as Houthis step up attacks. Yemen Ports & Shipping: Houthis claimed missile strikes on Saudi naval vessels off Mocha and drones hitting a weapons depot in Marib; Yemen’s government says repeated attacks have damaged Mokha port and forced suspensions, raising costs and disrupting trade. Hormuz Fallout: With a US-Iran 60-day MoU deadline expiring, Iran says it may shift to a “fully offensive” posture if diplomacy fails, while Trump rejects extending the truce and threatens Oman over Strait of Hormuz talks. Energy Markets: Oil jumped above $90 as Hormuz traffic slowed to a trickle and investors priced higher supply risk; shipping delays and rerouting are adding pressure across regional logistics. Piracy Resurgence: Off Somalia, armed pirates seized a commercial cargo ship, adding another layer of risk for vessels already rerouting around Yemen and the Horn of Africa.
