(Cabo Delgado province) Ten people including children were
beheaded in a village in northern Mozambique in a weekend attack blamed on
suspected Islamists. The attack occurred in Monjane, a village not far from
Palma, a small town gearing up to be the country's new natural gas hub in the
northern Cabo Delgado province.
Cabo Delgado of late has seen a number of attacks by followers of a radical Kenyan preacher who was killed in 2012, his followers moved south and settled in Kibiti in southern Tanzania, near the border with Mozambique and for some very strange reason the area across the border has started to face Islamist attacks.
