While detour through cape of good hope is an alternative to trade through suez , however instc is more geared towards trade with central Asia and Russia , so can't be seen as a viable alternative to suez or cape of good hope.

Given low exports to Russia , Russia + Central Asia combined could be a good market to reach through instc for Bharath.

Trade blocks in suez will impact chicomese as it's their primary route to Europe.

Assuming ~4 houthis per boat, atleast 12 became fishfood while trying to act too smart


The more the Houthis indulge in these wanton attacks the more they're digging their own graves & unintentionally helping the Saudi alliance achieve its goals in Yemen which they weren't able to accomplish till date. If this continues , expect the matter to be taken up in the UNSC .


If a resolution is passed there empowering the US based alliance to keep the Bab el Mandheb straits free of all attacks at any cost you're going to see a multi national Navy take on the Houthis . Even if there's no such agreement at the UNSC assuming Russian veto , the more the attacks on neutral shipping like that of India & the more likely you're to see the US & its allies prosecute a war on the Houthis along with neutral parties like India contributing.

“If India decided to resume oil imports from Iran then exports to the country could increase ten-fold using the rupee-rial trade mechanism. But Tehran’s alleged support to the Houthis’ aggression in the Red Sea"

Houthis have a deal their continued belligerence can only have one rational explanation, Persians are pushing them so that they too can have a deal.

"Signalling maritime dominance: China’s Naval Commander Dong Jun elevated as Defence Minister"

"Recently, the Chinese Navy launched its special VHF channel 16 for the Gulf of Aden and Somalia maritime area to help merchant ships and oil tankers in trouble."


All these have been war gamed by our safed posh afsaraan and our counter will be slowly but surely revealed.

"Grant Shapps, the UK defence secretary, said the government would not hesitate to take “direct action” to prevent further attacks"

Folks should read about operation earnest will .
It took place on other side aka in Persian gulf and Indian tankers were attcaked by both .
Thing was Iraqis attacked tankers and cargo ships going to Iran , and Iran attacked ships going to Basra in Iraq.
Unkill Sammy had to intervene as usual and even Saudis with aaudis drew a line called as King Fahad line , along their coast and it extended till Oman on the mouth of Persian gulf . ofcourse the line extended some distance into persian gulf .
So saauudis with aaudis gave ultimatum to both Iran and Iraq that if either of them attacked a ship on way to Jeddah and other ports of കട്ടാരവി ജനസന്തയി.
They will defend , and they defended it too.
So for 5 or 6 yearss ships would sail inside the Fahad line .

Let's hope it's not for kadi ninda alone.
"Ensure safety of seafarers: IMO chief
The Secretary-General of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), Arsenio Dominguez
, said that recent information received by IMO showed that Houthis were not confining their attacks just to shipping linked to Israel."

"Gasoline to put out a fire: Russia
Vassily Nebenzia, Russia’s ambassador to the UN
said that restrictions on freedom of navigation in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden was not happening in a vacuum."

"Liberia-flagged bulk carrier had reportedly been boarded by armed individuals southeast of Eyl, Somalia."

Bulker to Bahrain boarded by unauthorised armed individuals.




As per rumour Al shabab will provide protection to pirates in return for 30% cut.

Suddenly both, coast off Somalia and red sea have seen increase in attack on merchant ships - who will benefit gora sahib, chicomese,..???
