- Ethiopia joined Yemen, Djibouti and Somalia in Nairobi for talks on maritime law enforcement, cooperation and information-sharing.
Ethiopia joined officials from Yemen, Djibouti and Somalia for a two-day maritime law-enforcement dialogue in Nairobi during the week of August 24, 2026, according to a United Nations account reported by Addis Standard and carried by AllAfrica.
The meeting focused on stronger regional cooperation and information-sharing as countries around the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden confront growing maritime threats.
