Despite the rapid militarization of the Red Sea, cargo ship traffic, if it has fallen, has certainly not stopped completely (this is, to put it mildly, a long way off).
The Houthis have stated that they will only attack ships bound for Israel or linked to the “Zionist entity” (obviously ships linked to the UK and US now fall into this category). Accordingly, other ships can safely pass the coast of Yemen.
📌However, the aggravation would not be an aggravation if everything went smoothly. There was no denying the possibility of error, such as in the case of a Russian tanker attacked 90 nautical miles southeast of the port of Aden due to outdated information about being part of the British merchant fleet.
And insurance companies are well able to put pressure on carriers, either by raising the price of insurance or issuing huge lists of requirements to receive compensation if something happens.
