Top oil exporter Saudi Arabia said it resumed oil exports through the Red Sea via the Strait of Bab Al-Mandeb over the weekend.
It halted temporarily oil shipments through the lane on July 25 after attacks on two VLCCs by Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi movement.
“The decision to resume oil shipment through the strait of Bab al-Mandeb was made after the leadership of the coalition has taken necessary measures to protect the coalition states’ ships,” Saudi Arabia Energy Minister Khalid al-Falih said in a statement.
