Iran backed Houthi rebels have been bombing commercial ships in the Red Sea, in solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza. The attacks, which the Houthis indicated will continue until Israel halts its campaign in the Gaza Strip, has caused disruption to a major shipping channel, leading the US and its allies to respond. Join Amr Hamzawy, Director of the Middle East program, for a conversation on the political economy of the Red Sea as the ongoing impacts of the Israel-Hamas war in the region.

The Indian Ocean region has been an important trade arena for centuries. Today, it remains critical to the security and stability of shipping lanes and trade routes, accounting for over one-third of the world’s bulk cargo traffic and two-thirds of the world’s oil shipments and ensuring global access to food, precious metals, and energy resources. For decades, the Indian Ocean region has been erroneously studied through the continental divisions of Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia. But to understand the true economic importance and strategic advantages of the region, especially given recent Houthi attacks of cargo ships in the Red Sea, it must be viewed as one continuous theater. Carnegie’s Indian Ocean Strategic Map does just that. The first of its kind, the recently updated the map shows policy makers, business leaders, and civil society how the Indian Ocean’s economic, political, military, and geographic features interact to create a single geopolitical arena. Join Darshana Baruah, fellow in the South Asia program who leads Carnegie’s Indian Ocean Initiative for a conversation on the geostrategic importance of the Indian Ocean.
