They said a week ago that \u201cthe war against terrorism is almost over.<\/p>\n<p>Bernardino Rafael gave an update on the fight against armed groups terrorising districts of Cabo Delgado province on 13 May when he was speaking to a military contingent from Rwanda in the Administrative Post of Chai, Macomia district.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are not saying we have reached the end, but it is almost over,\u201d Rafael said, stressing that 70% of the planned military operations against the armed groups in Cabo Delgado province have already been executed.<\/p>\n<p>Cabo Delgado province is rich in natural gas but has been terrorised since 2017 by armed rebels, with some attacks claimed by the extremist group Islamic State.<\/p>\n<p>French oil company TotalEnergies pulled out of the region last year and will only return when security conditions are met, something the company itself estimates could happen later this year.<\/p>\n<p>There are 784,000 internally displaced people due to the conflict, according to the International Organization for Migration (IOM), and around 4,000 deaths, according to the ACLED conflict registration project.<\/p>\n<p>Since July 2021, an offensive by government troops, with support from Rwanda and the Southern African Development Community (SADC), has allowed areas where there was a rebel presence to recover.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
