From rising fuel prices in South Africa to food inflation and trade disruptions in Nigeria and fuel shortages in Addis Ababa — the ripple effects of the Iran war are already being felt across Africa.
But this isn’t just about fuel and food.It’s about power, influence, and shifting alliances.
In this explainer, EWN’s Jane Dutton unpacks how a war thousands of kilometres away is reshaping lives, markets, and power across Africa — and what could come next.












"Gentiles prepare for war. Israel (not the country) prepare to meet God"
Thank you
Regarding Ships first Docking will be Angola🇦🇴 Namibia 🇳🇦 then South Africa 🇿🇦
Straight Of Hormuz is Geographically situated in Iran's Territory so Scrap that International Waters story that is Orchestrated by the Western Regimes.
Thank you Jane ❤
This is pure evil, killing innocent ppl just for political reasons. This is sick😢
The friend of AfriForum, Whites in South Africa started the War. The US and Israel started the war and now the whole world will suffer
It's the US-Israel war on Iran, not Iran war
And suffer the innocent civilians🤦🏿🤦🏿 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
And nothing justifies Africa getting oil all the way from the ME when the Creator blessed Africa with sufficient oil and gas as most if not all mineral resources known to men
I struggle, but I'm prepared to struggle more if it means the Iranian regime falls. A worthy cause.
Africa have everything why it's also suffering from fuel, I wonder
The innocent suffer the most and the animals. 😢😢😢
I never condone people dying especially innocent kids, R.I.P. Unfortunately evil regimes need to be stopped and those fighting for these regimes need to be dealt with! Well done President Trump for eliminating these regimes💪
