Tanker switches Asia voyage via Suez amid Houthi warnings, owner says
The Torm Innovation tanker will navigate the Suez Canal to Asia. This decision follows Houthi threats impacting shipping in the southern Red Sea. Crew safety remains the company's highest priority amid security concerns. Red Sea traffic has seen significant drops since attacks began last year. Critical fuel shipments face extended journey times without the Bab el-Mandeb gateway.
