Just explain what's happening for me. voice-verified

And now of course they are disrupting one of the world's most important shipping routes. voice-verified

So what have they done? voice-verified

Well, yes, and and disrupting a Saudi pipeline, a pipeline for oil that it was relying on because the Strait of Hamoos was shut. voice-verified

Because Iran and its allies, including the Houthis, they now have sway over two main routes for shipping out of the Middle East. voice-verified

That's so significant. voice-verified

Isn't it? voice-verified

Just explain for me, Tim, then. voice-verified
