22/10/2025 (Agence Europe) – On Tuesday 21 October, the European Commissioner for Equality, Preparedness and Crisis Management, Hadja Lahbib, announced the mobilisation of €800,000 in humanitarian funding. “The surging violence in Northern #Mozambique has forced thousands to flee. The EU is responding (...) to provide emergency assistance and protection to those most in need”, she said on the X network. According to the ‘ACLED’ monitor, attacks by the Islamic State group have caused panic in Palma and Nangade in particular. The Commission’s humanitarian services have counted 519 attacks carried out by insurgents affiliated to the terrorist group since January 2025, AFP reported on Wednesday, referring also to the possible relaunch in the region of a gas project worth more than $20 billion led by TotalEnergies.
