    Episode 129: Global Silence on the UAE’s Shadow Role in Sudan’s War

    The world often frames Sudan’s war as chaos born within its borders, but evidence tells a far more uncomfortable story.

    Episode 125: Silencing Truth: Press Freedom Threatened in Gaza Conflict

    In the midst of the Israel-Hamas conflict in the Gaza Strip, journalists were and are confronted with unprecedented dangers, with over 140 people losing their lives since October 2023. Despite repeated calls by the UN for a ceasefire, the violence continues, resulting in loss of life and destruction of vital infrastructure. Israel’s inability to guarantee the safety of journalists further exacerbates the perilous situation.

    Episode 123: Somaliland Remains part of Somalia despite Israel’s Recognition

    Israel’s recognition of Somaliland has been described as a historic breakthrough. On 26 December 2025, Israel became the first country to formally recognise Somaliland as an independent and sovereign state, opening the door to cooperation in areas such as agriculture, health and technology. But the deeper issue is not only what Israel and Somaliland may have agreed behind closed doors. Former Somaliland president Muse Bihi Abdi has called for transparency over any deal, arguing that the public has a right to know whether such commitments align with Somaliland’s constitutional and religious principles. That concern is legitimate. Yet the larger constraint lies elsewhere. Somaliland has functioned as a de facto state since 1991, with its own institutions, political system and relative stability. Still, it remains unrecognised by the African Union, the United Nations and almost all states. Somalia condemned Israel’s move as an attack on its sovereignty, while the AU reaffirmed that Somaliland remains part of the Federal Republic of Somalia. The dispute reflects a central principle of African regional order: the preservation of inherited borders. For the AU, recognising Somaliland is not only about Somaliland itself. It is also about what such recognition could mean for other territorial disputes across the continent. Israel’s decision is strategically important. Somaliland’s position near the Gulf of Aden and key maritime routes makes it geopolitically valuable, especially amid insecurity in the Red Sea region. But strategy does not settle sovereignty. The case shows the limits of unilateral recognition. Without broader regional consensus, Israel’s move remains symbolically powerful but politically limited. Read the full Article on iGlobenews.org
