  "summary": "Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire are set to conduct another joint inspection of their common maritime boundary, aiming to deepen operational cooperation and strengthen security within their shared maritime space. This inspection, which began in 2023 and has already completed six exercises, is seen as a confidence-building measure between the two nations, further enhancing coordination in managing and securing their common maritime area. Major General Anthony Ntem, Commissioner General of the Ghana Boundary Commission, emphasized that the ongoing 2017 ruling by the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) has provided a solid legal foundation for renewed cooperation between the two countries. The upcoming inspection, scheduled to begin on August 22, 2026, will not only address technical and operational objectives but also serve as an opportunity for both nations to strengthen coordination, mutual understanding, and cooperation in managing their shared maritime space.",
