The Red Sea and Gulf of Aden have long been vital arteries of global commerce, with approximately 12% of international trade transiting through these waters via the Suez Canal. However, recent geopolitical tensions have disrupted this critical corridor. Since late 2023, Houthi rebel attacks have targeted over 100 merchant vessels, leading to significant disruptions in maritime traffic and compelling major shipping companies to reroute vessels around the Cape of Good Hope, incurring additional costs and delays.
In response to these challenges, the U.S. government, under President Trump’s administration, brokered a ceasefire with the Houthis in May 2025, aiming to restore security in the region. Despite this agreement, skepticism remains among shipping companies regarding the durability of the truce and the safety of resuming operations through the Red Sea.
