Houthis have effectively taken control of Bab el-Mandeb Strait after seizing Perim Island in an 18-hour blitz. "Everything that was under our control on the western coast has fallen," a Yemeni government military official told AFP. 8.1 MILLION barrels of oil per day passed through the strait in Q2, per the EIA.
