The route between the Horn of Africa

and Arab peninsula

is one of the busiest migration paths in the world.

Each year hundreds of thousands of people,

mostly Ethiopians and Somalis,

use it to reach Gulf countries,

mainly Saudi Arabia.

Some have been forced out of their communities

by conflict and natural disasters,

and others move to seek work

and other economic opportunities.
