🔦🇲🇿 — South African Mission in Mozambique continues withdrawing.

💡#SAMIM is a joint force of countries from the #SADC (South African Development Cooperation), comprising of South Africa, Botswana, Lesotho, Tanzania, Angola, Zambia, Malawi, DRC and Namibia.

💡The force started withdrawing the 5th of April with the first contingent to leave being Botswana, followed by South Africa, and no later than yesterday left Zambia and Angola, Lesotho is in the process of getting their soldiers out of Cabo Delgado, the rest of contingents will be gone by July 16th 2024.

💡#Tanzania, #SouthAfrica and #Rwanda however pledged to either send another contingent or keep the one present in their place to fill the power vacuum.

💡The disappointment in #Mozambique is notable because of the lack of effect the alliance had in Cabo Delgado where the insurgency hasn't slowed down and funding has been extremely low.
