Some are saying that it is at least partially Israeli-owned, but I haven’t been able to 100 percent confirm that.

Either way, what the Houthis are doing is significant because it means fewer and fewer commercial ships will travel through this area to do trade with Israel. These vessels will have to traverse the entire horn of Africa if they want to avoid having their ships attacked and/or seized. This is obviously a much more expensive journey resulting in significant economic implications for the Zionists.
