Bab al-Mandab Strait: Yemen conflict leaves key shipping route unusually quiet

The Bab al-Mandab Strait, a critical international shipping route linking the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, has become unusually quiet amid the conflict in Yemen. Al Jazeera's Mohammed Taha Tawakkol reports from a boat at the meeting point of the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, where commercial shipping is notably absent despite it being a peak period. While international coalition warships are not visible in the area, Djiboutian naval patrols are active. The report notes that no security breaches have been recorded in the immediate area.
