There is much fight in the Middle East. Two important ways for ships are almost closed. These are the Strait of Hormus and Bab al-Mandab. Many ships with oil travel there normally. Now only a few ships go there.
The Huthi militia from Jemen blocks ships. They force 6 ships to turn back. The USA has fear for trade. President Donald Trump warns the militia clearly. He says: We will care about this.
The USA attacks targets in Iran for 11 nights. They use rockets and planes. Iran fights back with drones. Iran attacks bases of the USA in other lands. For example in Jordan and Kuwait. Soldiers die in this fight.
If the ways for ships stay closed, problems come. Oil and gas can get very expensive. About 15 percent of world trade goes through the Red Sea. If ships take a long detour, this costs much money. We notice this at the prices too.
