Original Note:
The map attached to this post shows the Yemeni EEZ, not territorial waters which extend to just 12 NM from the baselines. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_waters The Houthi Movement is not the internationally recognized government of Yemen and so cannot legally deny passage to international maritime shipping https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yemen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Houthi_movement
