Border Conflicts

Kenya and Ethiopia have agreed to strengthen coordination along the Moyale-Marsabit-Turkana corridor to address rising cross-border threats, as part of renewed efforts to operationalize their Defence Cooperation Agreement (DCA). The agreement is expected to involve the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) and the Ethiopian National Defence Force in structured joint military operations to secure key assets and stabilize vulnerable border areas. The discussions occurred during high-level bilateral talks between Defence Cabinet Secretary Soipan Tuya and Ethiopia's Minister of Defence, Engineer Aisha Mohamed Musa, on the sidelines of the 130th anniversary of the Battle of Adwa in Addis Ababa.
