MSF responds to sudden displacement of people due to violence in Cabo Delgado

On the night of 23 of July 2025 the non-state armed group attacked five villages in south of Chiure district, in the south of Cabo Delgado province, northern part of Mozambique. This attack triggered a massive wave of internal displacement and thousands of hundreds of families went seeking refuge in Chiure Town, the headquarters of the district.

After assessing the medical and humanitarian needs with local authorities and other organisations present in the region, MSF is launching an emergency response to support two temporary camps for displaced people in Namisir and Micone neighborhoods. The response will concentrate efforts supporting the local Ministry of Health with primary healthcare, mental health support, infrastructure improvements and water and sanitation solutions.
