Gogui (Arabic: كوكي) or Gogui Zammal, Kouki Zemal, etc.[a] (Arabic: كوكي الزمال) is a village and rural commune in the Hodh El Gharbi Region of Mauritania. It contains the main border crossing between Mauritania and Mali, and is the point from which Mauritania sends illegal migrants back to Mali. The crossing is normally busy 24 hours a day, since it is the main point of entry for foreign goods into Mali, but has been closed during periods of tension between the two countries.
