Answer:

The choke point between Yemen and Djibouti is the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait. It is a narrow waterway that connects the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden and the Arabian Sea. The strait is about 21 miles wide at its narrowest point and is only about 150 feet deep. It is a major shipping lane for oil and other goods, and is also a strategic military chokepoint.
