As logged at issue
We think it's likely Yemen's Mocha port will not resume any commercial operations within 30 days of the August 9-15 missile barrage, consistent with how badly damaged Yemeni ports have reopened only slowly after past strikes -- watch for a Houthi safe-passage guarantee or a port-authority reopening statement as the signal that would flip this.
