Saudi Arabia's trying to change and become much more westernized to the disgust of Iran.
No, they declared last week that they would, if America kept on bombing them, they would activate the Houthis again.
And it seems they have.
Houthis are dependent on the Iranians for their weapons and for their training and everything.
OK.
As you come in from the Indian Ocean, you pass through the Red Sea.
And the Red Sea on the right is Yemen and on the left is Somalia.
And then you turn up into the Gulf of Aden.
And sorry, you turn up into the Red Sea from the Gulf of Aden, excuse me, back to front.
And that's only about 32 kilometres across.
And that turn is called the Bab al-Mandeb.
So it's a very narrow choke point, very similar to, as you see, happening on the other side of the European Gulf.
Indeed.
At the moment, it's only Saudi Arabia being threatened.
It's not the rest of the world's supplies.
Saudi Arabia is a major exporter of oil from that area, from the port of Yambu up in the Red Sea.
They have exporting normally about 40 million barrels per day.
Now they're exporting 7.5 million barrels per day to make up some of the shortfall.
If that is cut off, particularly if it's cut off to China and India, that is a major problem.
Oh yeah, they have Iranian missiles, they have fast attack craft.
