With Red Sea disrupted, India may have to import more Russian oil. That comes with risks
India may need to increase imports of Russian oil due to Houthi attacks disrupting Saudi shipments via the Bab al-Mandab Strait. The attacks have already caused vessel crossings to drop from 43 to 31 per day, raising concerns over oil supply risks. India's diversified crude sources may help mitigate the impact, but reliance on Russian oil carries its own set of risks.
