The African Union urged cooler heads to prevail on Saturday after the United States and Israel launched strikes against Iran, warning that conflict could risk harming people on the continent.
The pan-African body’s head, Mahamoud Ali Youssouf called “for restraint, urgent de-escalation and sustained dialogue”.
“Further escalation risks worsening global instability, with serious implications for energy markets, food security, and economic resilience — particularly in Africa, where conflict and economic pressures remain acute.”
