Ethiopia is pinning its hopes of economic development on the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, which Egypt fears will imperil its supply from the Nile.
Sources in Egypt say construction work has begun to create space to accommodate Palestinian refugees on the border with Gaza. They say the area is being prepared in case of an Israeli offensive in the city of Rafah. Such a move could cause an exodus of Palestinians across the Egyptian border. Video footage released by the Egyptian NGO, the Sinai Foundation for Human Rights, shows work verified by the Reuters news agency as being along the Gazan border. Egypt has repeatedly said an Israeli offensive in Rafah would be unacceptable. More than a million Palestinians are currently sheltering there. Updates from DW’s Rebecca Ritters in Jerusalem and journalist Karim El-Gawhary in Cairo.

Evidence is mounting that Egypt is building a holding area for Palestinian refugees on its border with the Gaza Strip. Sources in Egypt say the work is in response to a possible Israeli offensive on the Gazan city of Rafah, despite international pressure. Satellite images show what appears to be construction work underway close to the Egyptian border with Gaza. Video released by the Britain-based NGO Sinai Foundation for Human Rights also shows building going on in the area. Egyptian authorities have denied making preparations for Palestinians being forced out of Gaza and are urging Israel not to attack Rafah.

Cairo isn’t the problem.

In 2017, Egypt’s government announced it would build a new capital city 45 kilometers outside of Cairo, the current capital. It was a shocking announcement since Cairo, a city of more than 10,000,000 people, has been the capital of Egypt for decades.
The government claims that Cairo has become too overcrowded and that moving the capital will give both Cairo’s residents and government workers more space. But this excuse is not new. For decades, Egypt’s rulers have been building brand new cities in the desert. None of them have solved Cairo’s density issue. And based on how construction is going, this new capital won’t be a solution either.
So why does Egypt want a new capital? Well, it has a lot to do with the political revolution in 2011.
Watch this episode of Vox Atlas to understand the real reason behind Egypt’s giant new capital city.
Sources:
Mohamed Elshahed’s extensive expertise on architectural history and urbanism helped us understand why creating new cities and communities doesn’t actually improve livelihoods in Cairo:
Nasr City was once Egypt’s new capital, but things went wrong:

For historical maps of Cairo, we mainly relied on these three books:
Understanding Cairo: The Logic of a City Out of Control by David Sims

Egypt’s Desert Dreams: Development or Disaster by David Sims
https://books.google.com/books..../about/Egypt_s_Deser
Cairo by André Raymond

We used this report by LSE cities to compare densities between major cities at 1:52:
https://lsecities.net/wp-conte....nt/uploads/2019/07/F
For the map at 5:05, we used an updated informal cities map created by Ahmed Zaazaa, a researcher and urban designer. For the demolitions and displacement locations, we used press clippings from Egypt Today and maps from the Cairo 2050 plan. Not all locations are shown.

The Intergovernmental Authority on Development regional organization has broken ground for the development of the organisation’s new Head Quarters in Djibouti.
#IGAD #BusinessDaily Kenya
http://bdafrica.com
Djibouti, a tiny country in Northeast Africa, is situated at the gateway to the Suez Canal, one of the world's busiest shipping routes. While its location is an economic commodity for a country that’s half unemployed, it also puts it at the center of a multinational fight against pirates in Somalia and terrorist groups. NewsHour Weekend Special Correspondent Martin Seemungal reports on foreign nations’ interests in Djibouti.
The leader of the jihadist group Al-Shabaab has called for attacks on "American and French interests" in Djibouti, less than two weeks before the country's presidential election.

Djibouti, a tiny country of less than a million people, has emerged as a key transit point for migrants, with poverty-stricken Ethiopians, Eritreans and Sudanese all crossing the country en route to find work in the Gulf states. Now, however, the conflict in Yemen is sending even higher numbers of refugees into Djibouti. Our team reports from the fishing town of Obock.

Ethiopia and Djibouti have a signed a deal to build a pipeline to carry Ethiopian gas to an export terminal in the Red Sea state.
Djibouti's Energy minister, Yonis Ali Guedi told Reuters late Saturday that the deal laid out '' key terms that will serve as a basis'' for related concession contracts.
'' It is the most expensive project ever built in the Horn of Africa region'', he said adding that both parties have reached a deal in principle for mutual benefits.

A recent 10% cut in power prices by Djibouti's government may enhance growth in the Horn of Africa nation where electricity bills account for nearly a quarter of business expenses. Most companies in the country cite electricity costs as the most significant constraint to doing business.
East Africa regional body IGAD says the recent cooperation agreement that Ethiopia, Somalia and Djibouti signed has brought positive winds of change to the region. IGAD has welcomed the new developments, which include the normalisation of relations between Eritrea and Djibouti. CGTN's Girum Chala has more.

*Djibouti commissioned a $3.5 billion, Chinese-built free trade zone on Thursday, deepening ties with the Asian giant and helping the Horn of Africa nation generate more jobs for its youths.*
Djibouti, with a population of 876,000, already hosts Chinese, U.S. and French naval bases and it also handles roughly 95 percent of the goods imported by Ethiopia, its land-locked neighbour with 99 million people.

It's a country with fewer than a million people and very limited natural resources, yet Djibouti is courted by world powers. That's because of its strategic location at the entrance to the Red Sea and south of Suez.
Relatively stable, it has drawn the attention of military planners in Japan, China, France and the US, who have all set up military bases there.
Incumbent president Ismail Omar Guelleh has been in power for 17 years but the opposition accuses him of not doing enough to deal with the country's high unemployment.
According to the World Bank, 20 percent of the population lives in poverty. Not everyone has been enthusiastic about the vote, some opposition parties boycotted it.
Voters in the tiny east African nation of Djibouti cast their ballots to pick a president.
After claims of repression and unfair constitutional change, the election is not without controversy.
What will it mean for stability? What are the global implications from a strategically important part of the world?
