Hala'ib

Hala'ib is a region located along Egypt’s eastern border near the Red Sea, near the border with Sudan. It is known for its strategic location and natural resources, including fisheries and potential mineral deposits. Historically, Hala'ib has been a point of contention between Egypt and Sudan, with both countries claiming sovereignty over the area. The region is part of the larger Hala'ib Triangle, which remains an unresolved border dispute. Currently, Egypt administers and controls the area, but Sudan also asserts claims. The dispute has political, economic, and strategic implications for both nations.
