Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) and CMA CGM announced on Saturday that they are suspending all shipments via the Red Sea, IRNA reported.
Their decision came due to recent attacks on cargo vessels by Yemeni Houthi projectiles.
AP Moller-Maersk A/S and Hapag-Lloyd AG made the same decision yesterday. Earlier, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant noted that Israel is ready to act against the militant group.
