UN warns one million could be displaced in Mozambique
Maputo, March 24 (RHC)-- In Mozambique, the United Nations warns up to one million people could be displaced by June amid the escalating violence in the northern Cabo Delgado province. Some 2,000 people have been killed since 2017, when fighters allied with the Islamic State group began an anti-government insurgency.
The Joe Biden administration declared the insurgents a “foreign terrorist organization” earlier this month and sent U.S. Green Berets to Mozambique to train soldiers in counterinsurgency.
