Last update: 2 hours agoRed Sea Logistics Push: Saudi Arabia’s Mawani has launched new cargo services linking Jeddah with Oman, Djibouti, Egypt and Jordan, as Gulf shippers keep rerouting away from higher-risk chokepoints and build “backup” corridors for Vision 2030.

Public Health: WHO and Gilead renewed a five-year push to eliminate visceral leishmaniasis, with expanded support for East Africa including Djibouti.
