Qatar blockade Helium supply disruption as Saudi Arabia and UAE cut ties

摘要

A decision by Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt and Bahrain to shut land borders with Qatar threatens to seriously disrupt helium shipments from Qatar and throw world helium markets into disarray. Saudi Arabia and the UAE suspended air and sea travel to Qatar, and Saudi Arabia shut its land border with the Middle Eastern country, on 5th June - effectively implementing a partial blockade of Qatar.
