Shares of the major shoe chain “Shoe Zone” in Britain fell by 17% after issuing a warning about a decline in its profits, as a result of high shipping costs and decreased supplies across the Red Sea. British newspaper The Independent: British companies that depend on the Red Sea have faced difficulties since the attacks on ships began late last year.- High costs of insurance, fuel and wages, making importing goods through the Red Sea much more expensive

We should say, thanks UK and thanks Ukraine for those USV. Russia took some of those. Last models seems to be done with fiber carbon and probably are painted with RAM paints, so they can be really dangerous for US warships. IRGC should import some of those and improve them with IA assisted seekers for making them invulnerable to ECM techniques. Some day IRGC via houties would sunk a US warship improving these kind of weapons.

Sharp Decline in Suez Canal Bulk Carrier Traffic: 79.6% reduction in dry bulk carriers passing through the Suez Canal in June 2024
In the last week, Yemeni forces killed a merchant mariner, sunk a commercial ship and forced a crew to abandon another in flames. The attacks come as the Houthis continue to escalate its eight-month campaign against commercial traffic in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.
Comparative data from Marine Traffic suggests that the Yemeni attacks have led to a 79.6 percent drop in drybulk carriers going through the Suez Canal in June 2024 versus June 2023. The recent attacks and sinking of Tutor is expected to lead to an additional rise in insurance costs for companies planning to send ships through the Red Sea.
Based on the Marine Traffic data, the Yemeni attacks are having a measurable difference in the Suez Canal traffic. While the Yemeni attacks are the main cause to the drop, the reasons could be due to timidness from the companies worried about the Yemeni group as well as rising insurance costs making it cost adverse to go through the Suez.
The DIA report found that 65 countries have been affected by the Yemeni strikes with 29 major shipping companies also hampered by the attacks. Companies, such as Maersk, chose to go around the Cape of Good Hope, at the tip of South Africa, instead of going through the Red Sea in order to avoid strikes, causing up to $1 million in fuel costs and additional transit times of one to two weeks. This also led to a delay in humanitarian aid to countries like Yemen, according to the report.

US and UK warplanes launched several airstrikes on Hodeidah International Airport in western Yemen in the overnight and early Friday hours. "US–British aircraft targeted Hodeidah International Airport with three raids," a security source told Yemen’s SABA news agency.
The renewed attacks came after several prior US–UK attacks on Yemen Thursday. "American and British fighter jets launched five raids on various Ansarallah sites in the Ras Issa area, which includes an oil berth affiliated with the port of Al-Salif, north of Hodeidah," a local source in the western Hodeidah province told Sputnik Thursday.

The snowflakes serving on the USS Eisenhower are now back home, getting counseling.
U.S. Navy sailors have seen incoming Houthi-launched missiles seconds before they are destroyed by their ship’s defensive systems. Officials in the Pentagon have been talking about how to care for the sailors when they return home, including counseling and treatment for possible post-traumatic stress.
