The African Union (AU), the League of Arab States and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation held a consultative meeting on their Palestine coordination mechanism in Addis Ababa on 4 November 2026. Participants reviewed ways to strengthen institutional cooperation, align diplomatic positions and mobilize international support for a just and lasting resolution. Speaking on behalf of the AU Commission chairperson, Ambassador Moussa Mohamed Omar reaffirmed support for a sovereign Palestinian state on the 4 June 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, and rejected displacement of Palestinians. The OIC called for civilian protection, unimpeded humanitarian assistance to Gaza and support for UNRWA.
