Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>The president of the Confederation of Economic Associations of Mozambique said on Tuesday that armed violence in Cabo Delgado remained a \u201cmajor concern\u201d days after a new rebel attack in Moci\u0301mboa da Praia raised fears.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe situation in Cabo Delgado continues to be of great concern to us,\u201d said Agostinho Vuma, adding that a new study is underway to assess the current impact of armed attacks on the business community operating in that northern Mozambican province.<\/p>\n

Vuma was speaking at a press conference in Maputo after a meeting with the European Union (EU) ambassador to Mozambique, Antonino Maggiore, following another attack last week in Moci\u0301mboa da Praia claimed by the Islamic State terrorist organisation through its propaganda channels. The incursion left at least 10 dead in a village in the interior of the district.<\/p>\n

According to the president of the CTA, a study carried out in 2021 pointed to a negative impact on the business sector of around $90 million (\u20ac84 million) as a result of the conflicts in northern Mozambique, adding that initiatives are underway with the EU, to support \u201centrepreneurs and boost business\u201d in Cabo Delgado.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, it\u2019s not a matter for the CTA, as a private sector, it also depends a lot on the actions of the forces\u201d fighting the insurgency, Vuma emphasised, noting that the new study of the impact of the conflicts will be developed depending on the return of the communities and the resumption of economic activity in some regions.<\/p>\n

The new raid in Moci\u0301mboa da Praia comes less than a month after the announcement, on 25 August, by the Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of Mozambique, Joaquim Rivas Mangrasse, of the elimination of the leader of terrorism in the country, Mozambican Bonomade Machude Omar, along with other members of the terrorist group\u2019s leadership.<\/p>\n

The extremist leader was described by several experts as \u201ca symbiosis of brutality and vigilante\u201d and was on the US list of \u201cglobal terrorists\u201d and the target of European Union sanctions.<\/p>\n

The province of Cabo Delgado has been facing armed insurgency for almost six years, with some attacks claimed by the extremist group Islamic State.<\/p>\n

On the ground in Cabo Delgado, the Mozambican Armed Defence Forces have been fighting terrorism \u2013 in attacks that have been taking place since October 2017 and which are hampering the progress of natural gas production projects in the region \u2013 since July 2021, with support from Rwanda and the Southern African Development Community (SADC).<\/p>\n

The conflict in northern Mozambique has already displaced a million people, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), and caused around 4,000 deaths, according to the ACLED conflict registration project, while the Mozambican President this week admitted to \u201cmore than 2,000\u201d fatalities.<\/p>\n
