At least 60 families were evicted from the Mahotas neighborhood in Mozambique following their occupation of land believed to be abandoned after the 2024 post-election protests. The families allege that the Rapid Intervention Unit (UIR) of the police force deliberately burned and destroyed their homes during the operation. Local municipal authorities claim they were not informed about the eviction. The incident occurred early Wednesday morning, according to reports. The families had sought shelter on the land following unrest linked to the elections. This action raises concerns regarding police conduct and the handling of post-election displacement. Further investigation is needed to determine the full extent of the damage and accountability for the alleged arson.
