The ongoing Middle East conflict escalated further as Iran-backed Houthi rebels joined the monthlong war by launching missiles toward Israel, raising alarms over global maritime security, especially around the Bab el-Mandeb Strait—a key trade route for 12% of global shipping. Their involvement could worsen disruptions already affecting oil, gas, fertilizers, and air travel. The U.S. has deployed 2,500 Marines and 1,000 paratroopers to the region in its largest deployment in decades.
