00:00In this footage, the Houthis announce a naval blockade against Saudi shipping in the Red Sea.
00:04Rather than using a conventional navy, they would most likely enforce it with
00:07anti-ship ballistic and cruise missiles, one-way attack drones,
00:11explosive drone boats, and fast attack craft positioned around the Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
00:16Any Saudi-linked vessel attempting to pass could face interception or attack,
00:20making commercial transit far riskier. To keep oil exports flowing from ports like Yanbu,
00:24Saudi Arabia would likely rely on naval escorts, coalition patrols,
00:28air surveillance and missile defense systems to secure shipping lanes
00:31while targeting any Houthi launch sites threatening maritime traffic.
