  1. Mozambique: Nearly 900k IDPs due to terror violence
Location:
Cabo Delgado, Mozambique, Mozambique, Southern Africa
Incident Date: January 28, 2024
Instability Rating Max 5.0: 3.50
DESCRIPTION::

Mozambique is grappling with significant displacement, hosting around 25,000 refugees and 850,599 internally displaced individuals, largely due to terrorist attacks and the impact of the climate crisis. The devastation includes attacks in Cabo Delgado and the aftermath of Tropical Cyclones Freddy and Gombe. While some people have returned to their areas, many face challenging conditions. The UNHCR, along with partners, is working to provide support and assistance, but funding falls short of the required $47.5 million. The province of Cabo Delgado has faced armed insurgency for six years, leading to extensive displacement and casualties.
