Yemen's Houthis say they will impose naval blockade against Saudi Arabia

Yemen's Houthi group announced plans to impose a naval blockade against Saudi Arabia, escalating tensions in the region. The statement, reported by Reuters, did not specify a timeline or details on how the blockade would be enforced. This move comes amid ongoing conflict in Yemen, where a Saudi-led coalition has been fighting the Houthis since 2015. The Houthis have previously targeted Saudi oil facilities and vessels in the Red Sea. The announcement raises concerns about potential disruptions to maritime traffic and regional stability.
