Firing on innocent merchant ships is despicable regardless of which country they’re owned by. The crews on those ships aren’t the ones perpetuating a genocide.
UK ships have literally been posing as Chinese ones recently to try getting through lol
Russian and Chinese ships are being let through for the most part since they’ve stopped supplying “israel” through the red sea as the Yemeni government has decreed.
The al-mandeb falls under the general regime of international straits, so no adjacent country can use their territorial claims to prevent passage of ships. Or are you one of those nine dash line kind of people?
Territorial sea is a belt of coastal waters extending at most 12 nautical miles (22 km; 14 mi) from the baseline (usually the mean low-water mark) of a coastal state.
Once you bother actually reading your link, you’ll note the part about innocent passage there. Yemen considers itself to be at war with Israel and the entities backing it.
Everyone else on the planet considers merchant ships to be innocent passage by default regardless of cargo or destination. I can smell the copium through my screen, and I’m not sure why you so badly want to defend the attacks against unarmed vessels that are not even carrying weapons. Find a better hill to die on.
Innocent merchant ships from countries that aren’t participating in a genocide, such as ones from China, have no problems getting passage regardless of cargo or destination. All the western countries have to do is to stop participating in a genocide of Palestinian people.
Seems like all you’re doing here is projecting your own copium onto others. If the hill you’re choosing to die on is that there shouldn’t be any consequences for committing a genocide, then what else is there to say about you.

Nobody is forcing these ships to sail through the sovereign territorial waters of Yemen which is where they are being interdicted.

Yes congratulations on learning how to use wikipedia, now look up the general regime on straits. Almost there, buddy.
You know what, I’m sure you’ll have trouble doing actual research so I did it for you
