AU Halts War Crimes Co-operation
The African Union is ending its co-operation with the International Criminal Court after it charged Sudan's president with war crimes.
Omar al-Bashir is accused over alleged atrocities in the Darfur region.
Reports from an AU meeting in Libya said the delegates agreed a statement saying they would not co-operate in the "arrest and surrender" of Mr Bashir.
The Sudanese government has been fighting rebels in Darfur since 2003, amid repeated claims of war crimes.
