Recent Houthi declarations of a naval blockade targeting Saudi-linked vessels, coupled with missile and drone strikes on tankers and Aramco facilities in July 2026, have driven renewed disruptions through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait amid the ongoing U.S.-Iran conflict that has already constrained Strait of Hormuz flows. Saudi crude loadings via Yanbu have fallen sharply, with multiple VLCCs rerouting toward Suez or the Cape of Good Hope, adding weeks of transit time and roughly $1.6 million in extra fuel costs per voyage. War-risk insurance premiums have more than tripled to around 1% of hull value, while dirty-tanker freight rates face upward pressure from reduced compliant traffic. Ground clashes near Mokha heighten risks of expanded control over the strait, with potential fees on transits and further volatility in energy benchmarks as markets price in dual-chokepoint exposure.

Attacks on military vessels will not be considered.
Missile/drone strikes targeting a ship that are intercepted or otherwise do not directly impact the vessel will not be considered, regardless of damage through debris.
Seize control refers to Houthi forces forcefully boarding and taking control of a commercial ship.
Qualifying incidents include, but are not limited to, drone and missile strikes, aerial bombings, and kinetic actions carried out by Houthi operatives in person, such as seizing a ship by force.
The primary resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible reporting.
If a kinetic incident occurs, but, on the specified date, 11:59 PM AST, material ambiguity remains as to whether the incident can be attributed to Houthi operatives, this market may remain open for an additional 3 calendar days, AST. If, at such time, attribution of the incident still cannot be confirmed, this market will resolve to “No”.
