Mozambique: Coordinated Cabo Delgado Attacks to Capture Transport Link – AuthenticAfrican

Posted on by All Africa

[Mozambique News Reports And Clippings] A coordinated series of insurgent attacks since Monday has been aimed at controlling the main N380 road from the Montepuez River to Mocimboa da Praia, to control important ports (Mocimboa da Praia, Mucojo and Quiterajo), and to control an important link to Tanzania. Following the failure of an attack on the Frelimo heartland on the Mueda plateau, taking control of the N380 and the road through Nangade also cuts Mueda's access to the sea.
