The Houthis have decided to attack ships passing through the area in protest against Israel's offensive on Gaza. The Houthis are one of the two sides that have been fighting in Yemen's civil war for years. We are talking about what is also considered to be the Yemeni arm of Iran.

In this case we are not talking about a small terrorist group, but a reasonably organised fighting force with years of combat experience. So this has generated a lot of concern - after all, at stake is one of the world's main commercial arteries: the one through the Suez Canal. But can the Houthis really close the Suez Canal, what does Iran have to do with it, and what will the US do? In this video we tell you all the details.
