To address the crisis, Saudi Arabia started a 1,200-kilometer-long onshore pipeline, diverting nearly 4 million barrels of crude a day to Yanbu, the Red Sea. This pipeline is the last tourniquet that the global economy is now free from complete blood loss. However, it also means that a large number of tankers must now pass through the Red Sea and the Strait of Mandeb — which is the range of the Houthi attacks! If the Mander Strait is also threatened by blockade, up to 30 percent of the world's maritime oil will be double-barred.
