Red Sea Convoys

What's Going on With Shipping?
June 14, 2024

In this episode, Sal Mercogliano - a maritime historian at Campbell University (@campbelledu) and former merchant mariner - discusses the latest Houthi attack against MV Tutor using an Unmanned Surface Vessel and killing a merchant mariner onboard (the fourth mariner killed since the start of the attacks in November 2023). Should the world navies adopt a new strategy and utilize convoys to run ships through the Red Sea, Bab el-Mandeb, and the Gulf of Aden?
