The bank of “Israel” talks about the repercussions of the Sana’a siege

Follow ups – Al-Khabar Al-Yemeni:

The Central Bank of “Israel” revealed the repercussions of the siege imposed by the Sana’a forces on Israeli maritime navigation.

The bank said in a report that the siege of Sana’a has more than doubled the duration of voyages to and from “Israel,” which has significantly affected the movement of imports and exports and inflicted severe damage on Israeli trade.

The report pointed out that the situation in the Red Sea has cast a shadow over Israeli exports, as goods worth $3.4 billion were transported to Southeast Asia, Oceania, and East Africa through this maritime corridor.

It also noted that the operations of the Sana’a forces have led to a near-complete halt in navigation at the port of Eilat, which has been reflected in car imports, as 48% of the cars imported to “Israel” were unloaded at that port in 2022, explaining that the ongoing naval siege represents a significant economic challenge for “Israel”.
