==Operations== Military Intervention in Zaire (1977): The group supported Zaire’s anti-communist leader Mobutu against an invasion from Angola by airlifting Moroccan and Egyptian troops using French aircraft during the Shaba I conflict. Arms Support in the Ogaden War (1977–1978): It provided arms to Somalia to counter Ethiopia, which was backed by the Soviet Union and Cuba. Egypt–Israel Peace Process: The Safari Club facilitated secret diplomacy, including talks in Morocco between Egyptian and Israeli officials, contributing to the 1977 Sadat visit to Jerusalem, the 1978 Camp David Accords, and the 1979 Egypt–Israel Peace Treaty. Financial Operations via BCCI: The group used the [[Bank of Credit and Commerce International]] (BCCI), founded by [[Agha Hasan Abedi]], to launder money and finance its operations, with Saudi Arabia providing significant funding. The Safari Club ceased formal operations after the 1978–1979 Iranian Revolution removed the Shah as an ally, but its networks continued to influence subsequent covert activities, including the Iran-Contra affair.
