Missing context

The piece does not provide data on the number of refugees or migrants, the specific challenges faced by Djibouti, the time frame of the IOM warning, or perspectives from Djiboutian authorities or other humanitarian organizations.

Important context

Djibouti is a key transit point in the Horn of Africa, and regional instability in Yemen has historically driven refugee flows. Simultaneous outbound migration from Djibouti reflects broader migration dynamics in East Africa.
