Ethiopia has publicly accused Eritrea and Sudan of supporting Tigrayan forces amid renewed clashes in the country's north, further straining relations with both neighbours. The claim marks an escalation in rhetoric around the conflict and raises fears of the fighting drawing in outside powers and destabilising the already volatile Horn of Africa region.

Morocco ranks among the African countries most exposed to the risks of climate change, according to a report carried by regional media. The finding highlights the Kingdom's vulnerability to drought, water stress and extreme weather, placing it alongside other North African and Sahel states where rising temperatures threaten agriculture and water supplies.
