The African Union has called on all sides in Comoros to "show the greatest restraint" amid violence and a political crisis in the wake of disputed elections.
AU commission chief Moussa Faki Mahamat said he was "concerned about the deterioration of the political and security climate" on the Indian Ocean archipelago, in statement released late Friday.
