Maputo — Islamist terrorists attacked the town of Macomia, in the northern Mozambican province of Cabo Delgado, on Thursday, according to a report in Friday's issue of the independent newssheet "Carta de Mocambique".
The terrorists burnt down homes and the Macomia health centre.
So far it is not known how many people died in this attack, or how much of Macomia has fallen into terrorist hands.
There were also terrorist attacks on nearby villages in Macomia district, including Litamanda, Chai, Nova Zambezia and Nova Vida.
"Carta de Mocambique" reports that electricity was cut to the northern districts of Cabo Delgado on Thursday night, which suggests that the terrorists may have sabotaged the Macomia electricity sub-station.
