The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has ruled that a contested maritime border between Somalia and Kenya should be adjusted in a way that grants Somalia rights over most of an oil-rich chunk of the Indian Ocean.
Somalia appears to have benefited most from an International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling on a contested maritime boundary with Kenya.
In a lengthy judgment made in The Hague on Tuesday, judges at the top UN court ruled that there was “no agreed maritime boundary” in force, and drew a new border line close to the one previously proposed by Somalia.
