At least 10,000 people were displaced in February in Mozambique’s violence-hit northern province of Cabo Delgado, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said in a report.
OCHA said that 93% of those movements of people were found to be due to “attacks or fears of the attacks.” Food and shelter are the main priorities reported by the displaced. Since 2017, the gas-rich province has been facing an armed rebellion that has caused thousands of deaths and displaced more than 1.5 million people including children, according to the United Nations.
