Facts and practical information

The Bridge of the Horns is a proposed construction project to build a bridge between the coasts of Djibouti and Yemen, across the Bab-el-Mandeb, between the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. It would be constructed by Al Noor Holding Investment. In 2010, it was announced that Phase I had been delayed. In 2015, civil war broke out again in Yemen. As of July 2021, nothing more has been heard of the project, and it is currently presumed to be indefinitely suspended or cancelled. ()
