China has not been exempt from the maritime blockade of Yemen. 🔹Tracking the routes of ships shows that a vehicle carrier belonging to the Chinese company "COSCO Shipping" was the first vessel that, after receiving a warning from the Yemeni armed forces, aborted its course in the Bab al-Mandab Strait and changed its route. 🔹Moreover, data from Hormuz Letter shows that 3 oil tankers carrying Saudi oil to China also decided against passing through Bab al-Mandab and have changed their course in the Red Sea. 🔸Following the warning from the Yemeni armed forces regarding the prohibition of ships associated with Saudi Arabia from passing through the Bab al-Mandab Strait, 6 oil tankers were prevented from continuing on their course and returned to the Red Sea yesterday.
