Terrorists attack Tanzanian villages – AIM report

Africa-Press – Mozambique. Last week terrorist groups crossed into Tanzania from northern Mozambique twice and attacked Tanzanian villages, according to a report in Monday’s issue of the independent newssheet “Mediafax”.

The first attack occurred on 18 October against Sengele village, in Mtwara province, and on the second occasion, on the night of 21 October, the target was Kilimahewa village, very near the Rovuma river, which forms the border between Mozambique and Tanzania.

The raiders burnt down a warehouse containing cashew nuts, and several houses. They reportedly kidnapped an unspecified number of people, who were later rescued by a unit of the Tanzanian Defence Force.

The raiders are believed to have fled across the Rovuma following the recent successes by the Mozambican defence and security forces and their allies from Rwanda and from SAMIM (SADC Mission in Mozambique) against the terrorist groups in Cabo Delgado province.
