'India Has A Lot To Lose': Why Houthi Attacks Should Worry New Delhi | South Asia Diary

Published on Dec 24, 2023 06:31 pm IST

Iran-backed Houthi rebels' attack on commercial ships in the Red Sea has sparked fears of destabilizing the region amid the ensuing Israeli war in Gaza. The US has formed a multinational task force, named Operation Prosperity Guardian, to deter the Houthi threat in the middle eastern waterway, which is crucial for international trade. India's big chunk of crude oil shipping also comes from this area. Major oil companies are now taking longer routes to deliver goods, resulting in a sharp rise in oil prices. Watch this episode of South Asia Diary as Strategic Affairs Expert Sushant Sareen decodes the Houthi threat and its wider implications across the world, including India. #us #india #houthis #rebels #yemen #america #israel #gaza #israelgazawar #redsea #middleeast #war #regionalconflict #destabilising #iran #commercialships #cargoships #threat #oil #oilprices #operationprosperityguardian Hindustan Times Videos brings all the News for the Global Indian under one umbrella.
