Middle Eastern countries impose shipping embargo on Qatar

San Fransico Container Ship

Five Middle Eastern countries, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Yemen, Egypt and Bahrain, have suspended shipments to and from Qatar.

The Bahraini and Saudi governments have also banned Qatar vessels from passing though their territorial waters.  The countries imposed the embargo because they believe Qatar supports Shiite militant groups committed to overthrowing their governments.
