How the Gaza Crisis Could Bring Iran and Al-Qaeda in Yemen Together - Sana'a Center For Strategic Studies
In early November, the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, said the Iranian-led Axis of Resistance in the region had no prior knowledge of the Al-Aqsa Flood operation carried out by Hamas against Israel on October 7. This could be true from a tactical and operational perspective...

I've got an interest in this, we've got product coming through the Red Sea in Jan and Feb. Hopefully sorted out sooner rather than later.

What's at stake in the collapse of Red Sea traffic: biggest shipping companies already deviate from the route
has caused some shipping companies to avoid the Suez Canal in recent weeks due to insecurity, and increased attacks by Yemeni rebels have prompted shipping companies to prevent hostilities from affecting container ship traffic in the Red Sea. This measure means adding 40% to the distance covered, but safety takes priority. “Despite the complications this would cause for our carriers in terms of delivery and transit times, the most important thing is the dialogue we maintain with the crew on our ships”, an industry source told ‘S&P Global Commodity Insights’. The solution: divert ships around the Cape of Good Hope.
However, an Asia-Europe round trip through the Suez Canal takes about 10 weeks, compared to about 13 weeks around the Cape of Good Hope. This means that one week of significant capacity deviation can have a domino effect for several months.

Which port your product will go to? We just had a conversation with a guy in shipping industry. Take it with a grain of salt, he said if you ship cargo from Asia to Europe, and if the port of discharge is in NW Europe then you don't have to worry too much. Theoretically re-route from Suez to Cape of Good Hope will increase the distance of 3500 nautical miles and a transition time increase of 10-14 days. But back in normal days the ship will spend a lot of time waiting to pass Suez, and later spend more time to dock into the port in Greece, Italy before pass through Gibraltar. Now with the ocean carrier re-route, ship will go to NW Europe directly. He said he won't surprise if we later find out it is a saving on transition time.
But if the destination is in Mediterranean , well, then good luck.

It will be coming out of Morocco, across the IO and around to Eastern Australia. We're already experiencing a longer shipping duration than if it was coming out of China, and adding the extra time to traverse the Cape will make logistics tighter than ideal at our end.

Looks like some escalation:
US Pentagon says Iranian drone ‘attack’ hit tanker ship off Gujarat coast
Drone attack off India coast: The Pentagon statement said the Chem Pluto ship flew under a Liberian flag and was operated by a Dutch entity.
Iranian kinetic drone hit a tanker 200 miles off the coast of India.
Earlier this year I wrote a problem statement that crossed the desk of senior leadership that covered this as a significant emerging risk.

Still waiting for the outrage, massive protests, and shitstorms on social media. Hundreds of thousands killed, millions displaced, tens of thousands actually dying of famine and disease, rape, abuse and torture on a mass scale, etc. But nothing but crickets and tumbleweeds.

Why hasn’t China joined US-led naval force against Houthi rebel attacks in Red Sea? Over 20 nations join US-led patrol as Houthi militants keep up attacks on Israel-linked commercial vessels in response to the assault on Gaza China may not take part unless its own ships are threatened, as it would not like to send mixed signals on the Gaza war, observers say.
It sent two ships whom ignore SOS calls from attacked shipping.
Article should have included unless its ports in Yemen were attached.
