Houthis officially announced Red Sea blockade; multiple shipping alerts show tankers already making sharp U-turns. Insurance and premium forecasts active and tracking premium spikes. Historical Red Sea blockade incidents (2023-2024) show 50-70% rerouting to Cape of Good Hope within 7-14 days. Current Houthi escalation rhetoric combined with live vessel tracking suggests 3+ vessel reroutes highly probable within 14 days.
