Al Jazeera English published this video item, entitled “Army, private firm, fighters accused of Mozambique war crimes” – below is their description.
– Warning – some people might find some of the images in the report disturbing.
Fighters, government forces and a “private militia” backing the authorities have indiscriminately killed hundreds of civilians in an escalating conflict in northeastern Mozambique, Amnesty International has said in a new report.
Violence stoked by fighters in gas-rich Cabo Delgado province has killed at least 2,600 people since 2017, about half of them civilians, according to an NGO, the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data. More than half a million people have been displaced.
