Recently, the Houthis in Yemen have repeatedly advanced their front, seizing many strategic locations along the Red Sea coast of Yemen and further controlling the Mander Strait. Furthermore, the Houthis mainly relied on missiles and drones to remotely attack passing ships in the Red Sea, but now they have switched to seizing coastal pivots such as ports and islands. From long-range attacks to seizing shore base positions, how will this change in the situation change the game pattern between the Red Sea and the Strait of Mander waterways? Wang Jin, a professor at China's Northwestern University Regional Country Research Institute, pointed out that as the Houthis strengthens their influence and voice along the Red Sea coast, countries along the Red Sea region may launch a new round of games, bringing a new impact on regional security. As far as global shipping is concerned, combined with the conflict between the US and Iran, international shipping costs will further increase, which in turn will affect the international economy.
