Why is the Red Sea and Horn of Africa becoming one of the most contested regions in the world?
From China’s military base in Djibouti to the UAE’s port deals in Sudan and Ethiopia, from Iran’s backing of the Houthis to Russia’s ambitions on Sudan’s coast, global powers are racing to secure influence over one of the world’s most important trade routes — the Bab al-Mandeb Strait.
