My latest in @nytimes about the likelihood of multiple new wars breaking out across the Horn of Africa at the same time that the Trump Administration is dismantling America's expertise and institutions that have enabled its previous peacemaking there.@csis nytimes.com/2025/05/09/opi…


Chad is one of the principal enablers of the war in Sudan. Let's hope Deby is being pressured to end that support to UAE/RSF. @tchadinfos @TchadOne

The question is why hasn't Boulos or Sisi acknowledged the real reason for his trip to Cairo, which was to meet with Burhan, who was also there yesterday to discuss CT cooperation, removal of sanctions and convincing the US to become more active in getting UAE to end RSF support.

Its pretty clear that the popular tensions and dissatisfaction driving last year's youth protests have hardly abated and are quite raw and just below the surface. Kenya feels like a powder keg.

At least two people were shot dead in Nairobi on Thursday after Kenyan security forces fired in the air to disperse thousands of mourners at a stadium hosting a viewing of deceased opposition leader Raila Odinga's body, Citizen TV reported. reuters.com/world/africa/l…



Massad Boulos tells Al Sharq that the US knows that Port Sudan authorities "cut ties to Iran sometime ago" and is "taking a series of good steps regarding the remaining interests of the former regime" and that "this is improving relations with Israel." asharq.com/politics/15673…


"I remember asking African ministers how many companies actually use AGOA, and for a whole country it might be five. It never fulfilled its promise.” african.business/2025/10/trade-…

Moment when Raila Odinga Mourners lost patience and begun attacking the VVIP lounge where the body & VIP are held up! Video: @BriefIntelHQ


AU is really a one trick pony. And at the exact moment that a country is in dire need of support and assistance, its reaction is to simply cut it off and end engagement. Seriously short-sighted and self-defeating approach to crisis response.

Egypt's President announces an upcoming Quad meeting in Washington sometime in October and implies that the SAF will attend. Big assumption that the US Government will even be open for business. presidency.eg/en/%D9%82%D8%B…

Ethiopia complains to UN that Eritrea is waging a proxy war against it via a faction of the TPLF. THe lack of conflict prevention efforts in the Horn is starting to show. africa-confidential.com/article/id/156…


Doha's discreet military support for Sudanese Armed Forces. Its not as secret as this story suggests but it should certainly be seen as part of the larger game of regional competition that Sudan finds itself in the middle of. africaintelligence.com/eastern-africa…


"Battered Iran and Hamas may look to war-torn Sudan for next foothold." The story that wont go away unless and until Port Sudan authorities decide that any association wiht Tehran becomes a net cost to their future. iranintl.com/en/202510060195


Prosecution of South Sudan’s vice-president raises fears of return to full-scale civil war. This will be the next domino to fall in the Horn. If I was a betting man I would say by 1/1/2026. theguardian.com/world/2025/oct…


"Attacks on 2 vessels last month saw the Houthis achieve their most northerly strikes. It's feared that this increase in range for Houthis comes either from the use of drones or from launching from small boats on Sudan’s coastlines." More of this story. moderndiplomacy.eu/2025/10/13/is-…


It is truly amazing what young people in Sudan are doing to support mutual aid and to build a better Sudan from the bottom up. Disheartening that I never hear from them about plans to enter politics/government to reform that broken system too. devex.com/news/sponsored… #Devex


An interesting article and good reminder from Alex de Waal that the international community did nothing to bring Ali Kushayb to justice--he would still be at large, like all other indictees, including Bashir, if he hadnt turned himself in. lrb.co.uk/blog/2025/octo…
