Description : They first intended to stay with a family from Macomia, but they were already housing other people who were uprooted by attacks. They instead settled in a dirt-floor classroom of a primary school, along with three other families. There are 23 people in total living in the school. They are among the many in northern Mozambique affected by armed violence. Attacks on villages have been recurrent in Cabo Delgado since 2017. The area was also hit by Cyclone Kenneth in April 2019, deepening the suffering of already vulnerable communities.
