Global shipping threatened by Houthi military advances
from World Business Report · host BBC World Service
The Houthis now control the vital Red Sea waterway including the key shipping lane through the Bab al-Mandab Strait. We hear from maritime and security experts. As oil prices hit an unprecedented six dollars per barrel in the U.S., we go to South Dakota and Massachusetts to speak to American business owners about the impact of higher prices and lower wages. And on the twenty fifth anniversary of 9/11, the Speaker of the New York City Council tells us about how her city fought back, but also about the environmental consequences of the attack.
