SADC forces seize terrorists’ training base in Moz

SADC Mission in Mozambique (SAMIM) spokesperson, Major Patrick Mfaladi of the Botswana Defence Force said the offense was launched on September 14 in an area south of the Messalo River in Cabo Delgado province.

“The base is believed to be known as ‘Sheik Ibrahim Base’ and was used as a training camp by the insurgency group,” Mfaladi said in an emailed statement. “Furthermore, light and heavy weapons were also seized left behind by the insurgents. “SAMIM forces also discovered a vast material of military training books and other aids to include communication devices and video content. “This capture and discovery will provide more insight on the operations of the insurgency group and provide SADC countries with information on the threat level of terrorism and extremism in the region.”
