BERLIN, Jan 9 (Reuters) - Germany's Hapag-Lloyd will continue to divert its vessels away from the Suez Canal and around the Cape of Good Hope for security reasons, a spokesperson for the company said on Tuesday.

"We deem the situation still dangerous," the spokesperson for the world's fifth-biggest container liner said. "We have daily re-assessments and will have next decisions taken Monday Jan. 15."

Like rivals, Hapag-Lloyd is avoiding the Red Sea area after Yemen's Houthi militant group began targeting commercial vessels, disrupting global trade, to show their support for Hamas. (Reporting by Elke Ahlswede, Writing by Nette Nöstlinger, Editing by Miranda Murray)
