2026 Djibouti migrant boat sinking
On the night between 8–9 October 2026, a migrant boat capsized near Guhere, north of the city of Obock in Djibouti. The vessel was carrying around 305 passengers, mostly Ethiopian migrants, across the Gulf of Aden to Yemen. Eighty-two people have been rescued from the boat, 139 others have been reported to have died, and a further 84 remain missing. According to survivor's accounts reported by the United Nations' International Organization for Migration (IOM), the boat sank shortly after leaving the coast. The IOM attributed the sinking primarily due to the ship being heavily overcrowded.
