Several Catholic organizations are trying to alert public opinion to the dramatic situation in the Cabo Delgado region, in the north of the country. Massacres being committed by jihadist militias have intensified since the end of March, while the Church accuses the government of passivity.
The director of the Institute for Peace - an entity of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Southern Africa (SACBC) - explains: “We tried to talk about it, but no one cared to listen. There is a global outcry now because a handful of foreigners have been affected. But this has been going on for a long time. More than 3,000 innocent Mozambicans have died in this violence and no one cared.”
