DNS 1.1.1.1 does not send my data to the closest data center

As you can see in the above pictures, I live in Yemen now and the nearest data center is in Djibouti
I need help why my data is not routed through Cloudflare in Djibouti

Djibouti may be the closest, but unfortunately I don’t think your ISP is peered with Cloudflare, or any transit providers to Djibouti.

This article sums everything up pretty well:

Thanks, i understand
But I have one last question before closing the article
Does every data center running for Cloudflare have its own DNS It would be good if I could use the DNS for the area data center to be used

No, Cloudflare is an anycast network so this is not possible
