Greece has issued a shipping ministry advisory urging commercial vessels to steer clear of Yemeni waters in light of recent attacks by the Iran-aligned Houthi militant group. Greek ship-owners, who control a significant portion of global commercial vessels, are advised to keep only essential crew on the bridge, follow maritime alerts, and conduct fire drills before reaching Yemeni shores. Houthi attacks have led to rerouting of ships, impacting global trade and prompting a multinational effort, including the U.S., to safeguard commerce in the Red Sea. Greece is in talks with the EU and U.S. for potential participation in international maritime security initiatives.
