The Foundation for Peace Professionals (PeacePro) weekend opposed the United States’ plan to conduct airstrikes against terrorists’ targets across Africa, saying that foreign military interventions have historically escalated conflicts rather than resolve them.

The group also urged the United States to shift its Africa policy towards economic partnership, conflict prevention, and intelligence-sharing, instead of launching military operations.

The group’s position came against the backdrop of a statement by Gen. James Hecker, Commander of U.S. Air Forces, Europe and Africa (USAFE-AFAFRICA), who announced during a digital press conference at the 2025 African Air Chiefs’ Symposium (AACS) in Lusaka, Zambia, that the U.S. military would continue targeting terrorist groups like ISIS in Africa.

Gen. Hecker said such airstrikes are necessary to eliminate high-value terrorist threats that endanger both African nations and the United States.

However, PeacePro strongly disagrees, arguing that Africa’s security challenges must be solved by Africans, not foreign powers.

Reacting to the announcement, PeacePro’s executive director, Abdulrazaq Hamzat, rejected any form of foreign military intervention on African soil.

The organisation, known for championing the demilitarisation of Africa, stated that foreign airstrikes have a history of causing civilian casualties, destabilisation, and increased terrorist recruitment rather than eliminating threats.

“While we acknowledge the security challenges facing Africa, we firmly oppose the militarisation of our continent by foreign powers. The U.S. military’s interventions in Libya, Somalia, the Sahel, and other regions have shown that airstrikes and external military actions often escalate conflicts, lead to civilian casualties, and create long-term instability. Africa’s security challenges must be addressed through African-led solutions, not foreign bombings,” Hamzat stated.
