The Washington Post published on 12 October 2021 an article titled "U.N. Court Rules in Favor of Somalia over Kenya in Long-running Maritime Dispute" by Rael Ombuor and Rachel Chason.
The International Court of Justice ruled this week that Somalia, not Kenya, should control most of the triangle of water in the Indian Ocean over which Kenya has maintained sovereignty since 1979. The maritime zone is believed to contain oil and gas and is important for fishing.
