CONTEXT & RATIONALE
BETWEEN 1 AND 17 OCTOBER 2025, incidents involving non-state armed groups (NSAGs) continued across Cabo Delgado and parts of Nampula, severely affecting civilians. Mazeze in Chiúre district was particularly hit, with attacks on 2, 4, 9, 14, 15, and 17 October targeting Juravo, Soma, Milapene, and Mazeze Sede, causing homes to be burned, property looted, and residents displaced. In Chiúre Velho, Napala, one person was killed and several homes destroyed, while in Erati, Nampula, four men were abducted in Odinepa. The violence triggered widespread displacement, with 1,329 households reported in Metuge Sede (Saul 85, Manono 215, Namuapala 66, Taratara 9, Bandar 15, Cuaia 50, Nanjua 31, Nanlia 9), Mazeze (Naminawe A 188, Naminawe B 148), and Impire (Notkota 513), either in resettlement centers or hosted within communities.¹
