❗️Saudi Arabia expands Red Sea shipping routes amid Hormuz disruptions
Saudi Ports Authority Mawani has launched a new shipping service connecting the ports of Jeddah, Salalah, and Djibouti with a capacity of 1,730 standard containers, according to Saudi state TV.
The service is aimed at strengthening maritime trade links between the kingdom and global ports.
The move comes as Saudi Arabia accelerates alternative Red Sea shipping corridors amid disruptions tied to the US-Israeli war on Iran and the effective blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Earlier this week, Mawani also launched the “Red Sea Express” route linking Jeddah and Yanbu with Egypt’s Ain Sokhna and Jordan’s Aqaba.
