MORONI, Comoros — Comoros' ruling party has won 28 out of 33 seats in Parliament, according to election results announced on Tuesday. That means the Convention for the Renewal of the Comoros party of President Azali Assoumani retained its majority in the Indian Ocean archipelago.

Comoros is holding a parliamentary election that some opposition leaders have pledged to boycott. They accuse President Azali Assoumani and his ruling party of adopting an increasingly authoritarian stance and have raised concerns over the integrity of the vote.
