Yemen's Houthi Rebels Declare Conclusion of Red Sea Crisis.
Yemen's Houthi rebels have recently announced the cessation of operations targeting Israel-related maritime interests, putting an end to the Red Sea Crisis that has lasted for two years. Since the ceasefire between the United States and the Houthis took effect in May this year, the Houthis only attacked ships linked to Israel. However, due to difficulties in target identification, most Western shipping companies still avoided sailing through the Red Sea.
On this occasion, the newly appointed Chief of General Staff, Yusuf al-Madani, publicly announced the suspension of all attacks and the lifting of the "blockade" on Israeli ports. His predecessor, Mohammed al-Ghamri, who was the mastermind behind the anti-shipping operations, was killed in an airstrike by Israel and the United States in August. The ceasefire may be attributed to multiple pressures: strikes by Israel and the U.S. have caused damage to the Houthis' missile and drone facilities as well as casualties among senior officials, while the advancement of regional reconciliation has also prompted the Houthis to adjust their strategy. The Houthis still pledge allegiance to Hamas, and if the Gaza agreement collapses, hostilities may resume.
The crisis originated from the Israel-Palestine conflict in October 2023, when the Houthis took the opportunity to launch attacks on merchant ships. In early 2024, the United States and the United Kingdom launched the "Prosperity Guardian" operation to provide escorts, forcing shipping routes to detour around the Cape of Good Hope. Currently, with the crisis coming to an end, large container ships of France's CMA CGM Group have taken the lead in passing through the Suez Canal.
