Despite rumours to the contrary, Israel still retains their status as an observer member in the African Union
Official PA TV program Real News
Official PA TV host: “This report says that the African Union (AU) revoked Israel’s status as an observer member. The one who published the report said that the African [AU] summit refused to grant Israel status as an observer member in the AU. These reports are incorrect and imprecise. After checking the reports that were disseminated it became clear that they mislead, as the AU has not yet revoked Israel’s status as an observer member as of the date of the report’s publication, but rather has frozen it.”
