The article focuses on the personal tragedies of individuals affected by the Islamist insurgency in northern Mozambique, particularly in the Cabo Delgado province. Rabia Ali recounts the loss of her husband, son, and brother-in-law to beheadings by militants and her subsequent displacement to the 25-Junho camp in Metuge. The camp, supported by the World Food Programme, shelters 16,000 displaced people. The jihadist group, locally known as Al-Shabab and linked to the Islamic State, has been responsible for over 700 attacks and more than 2,400 deaths since 2017. Muanassa Amulia, another camp resident, shares her harrowing experience of her son's killing, her granddaughters' kidnapping, and her own beating by the insurgents.

Pemba, a port city in northern Mozambique, has seen its population surge due to an influx of people fleeing violence from Islamic extremists, particularly Al-Shabab, which has pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group. The conflict, now in its fourth year, has resulted in over 2,400 deaths and displaced around half a million people. The local infrastructure is under strain as authorities struggle to provide basic services and vet newcomers for potential jihadists. Despite the challenges, many Pemba residents are offering shelter and support to the displaced. Some refugees have started integrating into the local economy, using their skills to earn a living, as the community grapples with the ongoing humanitarian crisis.

In northern Mozambique, nearly 670,000 people have been displaced due to a brutal jihadist insurgency. Despite the dangers, some are returning to their abandoned homes in search of food or to farm their old lands. The World Food Programme has provided food vouchers, but sustaining this aid is challenging due to difficulties in restocking stores, especially in the Palma district. The UN has reported that 1.3 million people in the region require humanitarian aid, with 950,000 facing severe hunger. Tensions have arisen in Pemba, where locals hosting displaced families feel excluded from receiving food aid. The WFP emphasizes that aid distribution is based on registration managed by local authorities to prevent conflicts between locals and displaced individuals.

The article recounts the harrowing experiences of Aziza Falume and her family, who were forced to flee their home in Pangane, Mozambique, due to a jihadist attack. Nine months pregnant, Falume gave birth to her daughter, named Awa or 'Suffering', while on the run. The family eventually found safety in Pemba, where they were taken in by a good samaritan. The article highlights the broader crisis in Cabo Delgado province, where violent raids have caused around 2,300 deaths and displaced half a million people since 2017. The story also touches on the plight of other displaced individuals, such as Farida Muarabu, who lost family members during her escape, and the overcrowded conditions in Pemba, which has seen its population nearly double due to the influx of displaced persons.

The city of Pemba in Mozambique is facing a humanitarian crisis as hundreds of people flee Islamist violence in Palma, a northern gas hub town. Peter N'Guila, a local consultant, has seen his household grow from three to ten as he takes in family members displaced by the conflict. The insurgents, linked to Islamic State, have intensified attacks in Cabo Delgado province, displacing nearly 690,000 people since 2017. Pemba's population had already increased significantly due to previous violence and Cyclone Kenneth in 2019. The city's infrastructure is under severe strain, with shortages in food, water, and healthcare services. Aid workers report poor conditions in resettlement camps outside Pemba, and the recent attack on Palma has led to tens of thousands more seeking refuge. French energy giant Total helped ferry around 1,200 survivors to Pemba. Local authorities and aid agencies are struggling to cope with the influx of displaced persons.

Sinamangue Tamu, a teenager, has become the caretaker of her three younger brothers after fleeing an Islamist insurgency in their hometown of Mocimboa da Praia, Mozambique.

The camp, a former agriculture training college, houses around 600 families who are part of the half million people displaced by the conflict. The insurgents' attacks have intensified, leading to torched villages and atrocities. Isa Ali, another camp resident, has lost his home and contact with his family. The displaced people are facing hunger and poor living conditions, with insufficient government aid. Charities like Caritas are trying to provide relief, but access is limited due to insecurity in the region.
