Such a crossing would link the Horn of Africa with the Arabian Peninsula

Could be a bridge, a tunnel or even a 'submerged floating tunnel'.

Plans to build one have been approved in the past, but never started. Yemen and Djibouti/Eritrea are both very poor, so they would need significant external funding. I think this is unlikely (but not unheard of - it got close before). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_of_the_Horns
