| Troops from southern Africa's regional bloc who were deployed to tackle an Islamist insurgency in Mozambique are to leave the country due to financial contraints. | |
| The Southern African Development Community (Sadc) has been considering its budget limitations, Mozambique's foreign minister said. | |
| Verónica | |
| Macamo added that the bloc believes the Mozambique is relatively stable compared to eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, which has been wracked by armed groups for decades. | |
| Sadc's military forces have been attempting to quell violence in DR Congo since December last year. | |
| Mozambique's President Filipe Nyusi said Sadc plans to withdraw its forces "by July". However, Mr Nyusi said, this did not mean the nation's fight against jihadist groups would stop. | |
| "Countries have also offered to work with us bilaterally, if justified," he wrote in a Facebook post. | |
| "As Mozambicans we need to be ready for this reality. Let's not get distracted The greater responsibility is with us." | |
| An armed insurgency has beset northern Mozambique for six years, with the Islamic State group saying it was behind some of the violence. | |
| The insurgency, which has seen involved several attacks on the public and armed forces, prompted a military response in July 2021. | |
| Support came first from Rwanda, who sent more than 2,000 military personnel to Mozambique, and then from the Sadc. | |
