Faced with an uncertain future, Mozambicans are appealing for international assistance to return their country to stability. Residents are anxious as they navigate the political unrest and worry about the potential for conflict. The overwhelming message is clear; many prefer to leave the turmoil behind and hope for peace to be restored.

In the wake of a festive season marred by unrest, migrant workers and holidaymakers are making their way back to South Africa from Mozambique. The political instability stemming from concerns about the presidential inauguration has prompted many to leave the country early. The opposition party has announced peaceful protests from Monday to Wednesday, adding to the uncertainty many migrants feel. Despite previous issues, travelers are now able to move freely, but the anticipation of protests has caused anxiety among the populace looking to escape potential violence. Mozambicans plead for global intervention to restore normalcy in their country as they strive to secure a better future for their families.
