The Mediation of the Republic of Chad has expressed regret over the ongoing clashes in the Miski area of Tibesti province.

The institution recalled the agreement signed on April 20, 2025, in Bardaï, which is a commitment that all parties must prioritize preserving and implementing. The agreement is seen as crucial for maintaining peace and stability in the region.

The Mediation emphasized that difficulties and divergences should not justify undermining the gains achieved through dialogue and concertation. The institution urged the parties to take responsibility, prioritize dialogue, and revive concertation mechanisms while respecting their commitments. This approach is expected to lead to a peaceful and durable resolution to the situation.

The press release, signed by the Mediator of the Republic, Ambassador Saleh Kebzabo, reiterated the Mediation's full readiness to support any initiative that could lead to a peaceful and sustainable outcome. The institution's involvement aims to facilitate a return to peace and stability in the affected region.
