Saudi Arabia and 13 other countries have formed a multinational maritime defense alliance to secure navigation through the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, Red Sea, and Gulf of Aden, aiming to counter attacks on shipping routes mainly from Iran-backed Houthi forces.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You must factor the new Red Sea coalition into your risk assessments for regional shipping security and energy routes. This alliance signals rising collective military coordination that could shift power balances and shipping safety in the Gulf and Red Sea trade lanes.
