Africa Defense Forum magazine published by the US Africa Command published on 16 September 2025 an article titled "Ghana Expands Inshore Exclusive Zone to Curb IUU Fishing."
Ghana has expanded its inshore exclusive zone from 6 to 12 nautical miles to stem illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing. Most of the IUU fishing is done by Chinese-owned trawlers flagged to Ghana.
