It’s the same as before:


From the article:
“We express our readiness to contribute to appropriate efforts to ensure safe passage through the Strait. We welcome the commitment of nations who are engaging in preparatory planning,” it continued, without specifying the nature of that support.

They already stated what they consider “appropriate support” and it does not include sending any naval assets until after hostilities have ceased.

The Houthi have just lost most of their funding. They won’t be attacking anyone without the financial support.
