NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
The Strait of Hormuz is a strategically important waterway, with a significant proportion of the world's oil passing through it, making any disruption to shipping in the area a potential concern for global energy markets. The Houthis, a rebel group backed by Iran, have been engaged in a long-running conflict with a Saudi-led coalition in Yemen, which has occasionally spilled over into the surrounding waters. The declaration of a naval blockade by the Houthis raises the stakes in this conflict and could have implications for regional stability.
