We live in an interesting time where a nation can successfully pull off a blockade for this long even without the sheer budget of navies like the US's

Weren't there so many tweets saying how "The Houthis are about to find out why we don't have free healthcare"? Well, the Houthis are still wondering why.

It's a no brainer.

A small nation that's been getting bombed for the past few years by Saudi with US and UK backing at that. Other countries should take notes.
