Our Doctors Without Borders (MSF) teams have been forced to suspend medical support in Macomia in the northern region of Mozambique following a recent attack on the village that also resulted in the destruction of our healthcare centre.
The Health Centre where Doctors Without Borders (MSF) provides medical support, located near those buildings and military barracks, was severely damaged.
Macomia was already home to thousands of displaced people from previous attacks and the number of those forced to leave their homes in Cabo Delgado is growing.
“The situation could be extremely dire for those who were forced to flee from Macomia and other villages - without shelter, clean water and access to medical care, they are extremely vulnerable.”
MSF is also present in Maputo and Beira providing care to people with advanced HIV, Tuberculosis, Hepatitis and vulnerable populations.
