It has emerged that 12 people, some believed to be foreigners, were beheaded in a hotel in Mozambique during a recent raid by ISIL (ISIS) fighters.
Regional leaders are trying to find a solution after a recent surge in violence.

#AlJazeeraEnglish #Mozambique #Violence
😭😭
My deep condolences for the people of Mozambique. Any forms of terrorist actions must be condemn. The world should help them.
where is usa and nato?
As long as certain books call for the subjunction of non believers exist, violence will never be cease in this systematic scale.
Why do Islamist extremists have an obsession with beheading? Why do they enjoy doing that so much?
Sponsored by Middle Eastern states.
@juba mekerri americans saved iraq from isis. Wtf you on about, isis-lover?
@Lachausis American saved iraq from isis hahahah nice joke tell that to 1.2million iraQi who die sins US invide iraQ
@SC no, USA’s firepower helped tremendously. Iraqis would have fought much longer if not for US air power. Russia didn’t operate in iraq.
@SC I was talking about ISIS in Iraq, russkie-fanboi
@Lachausis same thing tbh, not fan boy just stating facts, Russia always supported liberation movements, the USA on the other hand have forever been trying to destabilise countries from Africa to South America
Why is Africa always so unstable and unable to handle power?
I hope the AU steps in quick.
They need to group together as they have to tackle al-Shabaab in Somalia & Boko Haram in Cameroon, Chad, Niger & Nigeria.
Why is Botswana woŕried…are they not the same government killing innocent civilians in thier Neighboring country Namibia…what happened to their love for innocent blood?
Where is Tanzania in all this?
Rejecting Mozambican who’s fleeing to Tanzania
Peacefuls strike back…yet again.
THE ONLY WAY TO FIGHT THIS PEOPLE WOTHOUT PREJUDICE IS TO HAVE ALL THE AFRICAN STATES(COUNTRIES) MILITARY PERMANENTLY UNITE INTO ONE FORCE WITH ITS GENERAL SPREAD AROUND. This is the strategy which would lead us all uniting without a fight.
It would take endless wars to agree who would be in control of this United army
@MAC it will be easy because most of the military would be move most states(countries ) and generals will be repositioned remember they now will be serving Africa not just individual state like we have now. We do that we can stop most of this illegal arm sales and many even the soldiers will feel proud to serve the largest and the richest continent
@Patrick Ashun many of the wars in Africa at the moment are caused by tribalism and or quests for power and control.
You have not explained who would be in overall charge of this army. Anyone you could name could be guaranteed to have enemies who would object.
A classic example of this is the Middle East. For decades the idea of unifying the Arab world has been knocking around. I may be wrong but i believe Nasser of Egypt made the most progress. Only for it to come undone for the same reason it never achieved its full potential. Arguments about who is in charge.
This has america all written all over it. I mean there is oil there
ISIS is Iranian. Putin’s Wagner Group left the area for them to take over and cause chaos before the Wagner Group moves back in to hijack their economy. They’re gunning for those South African PGMs
Islam needs to be banned from the entire world . It has become too dangerous for the world now .
Let’s take everyone in 7th century
In golden age of beheading peoples
That’s how Islam brainwashes the fringe elements.
That how Christians tornde Africa to war zone
@juba mekerri true brother
@juba mekerri Yes. Christianity and Islam both are wrong. People should be atheist. Because no God’s exists in this world!!
@Sublime Fermion problem not in god problem in people who do evil thing in name of god
Allah yarham shuhada R. I. P innocents
Typical day in AF-Freak-Ca .
Amerikkka ain’t perfect either
Welcome to islam
@nemea wheres yr evidence
Ok sorry bro for my language
But why do u have such a twisted perspective of Islam
@Mo Farfi hello’, men beheading people in the name of religion in the 21st century..
Whybdont u actually read tge quran and see if it teaches what u claim.
If Islam is the religion of Peace, why are Islamic extremists not extremely peaceful?
@Mohammed Fahim Uddin Quran (4:89)
“They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allah . But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them and take not from among them any ally or helper.”
@ares 1999 And how was our Prophet peace be upon him a warlord
@mctrailer u embarassing full u thought u were clever u tool this verse out of context tell me the verses before and after the 89 verse
@Mohammed Fahim Uddin It’s your Quran. Go read it. There are more verses if you want. Or you wanted me to copy and paste the entire Quran?
@mctrailer even I know that’s a profecy refering to groups that abuse their religious texts to urge the nation of islam into war, and as it states there it’s for the muslim comunity to turn their backs to it and not to wage war next to them but against them. It’s a question to know how to read. There are much better passages to nake your point cause that one isn’t.
Here we go again . Why do Islamic states always attacks these innocent people??? Why do innocent people have to die in the hands of Humans . Countries with Oil and Gas are targeted always . Just like Iraq, Libya, Syria. Let’s take a look at Afghanistan not to mention Congo , these are countries facing so called religious chaos just because the found out something which will benefit their own people.
❤❤❤💝
How much oil does Mozambique have?
Apparently none, but some of the largest gas fields in the world was discovered there a decade ago and they are one of the biggest producers of natural gas, with some really big but seemingly meaningless numbers following.
If the victims were all foreigners then why were they buried there?
I guess that because of the climate, it was important to bury them quickly in order to avoid attracting flies, rats etc.
That will be online somewhere…
Religion of peace always like that
African countries are so full of resources but still their people are so suffering !! No country wants their development, neither their corrupt leaders !!! Africans are strong people, why are not they fighting back ??
They too brainwashed by western countries during colonization
awww the peaceful religion
Yes, them Christian missionaries sure showed the world.
@King Kong ohh…as if islam spread by giving bread
@King Kong Don’t start Sir, You cannot compare the 2. Christianity was and is far better than Islam.
Mental Disorders Mustn’t Be Said The Islam, Please. Islam Is The Peace & People Uses The Name Of Islam To Fight Their Wars Of Probably Hunger/Inferiority Complex.
Allah is the only God and Muhammad is his prophet.
And I’m going there to work on december.. on that LNG project. Sounds like a joy ride there..
Yep, might as well prepare some Last Will and Reserve a good funeral.
Stay alive though!
Keep your head on your shoulders buddy, good luck
Stay at home
@Garou by then they will have private contracting companies securing the entire area.. we are with +1000 people there. If it stays like it is now not even 5% will fly over
The Africans were always divided. Hard to understand them. And easy for militants…a huge strong
Is Asia United?????
They will lie to those who are blind to see and deaf to here, its well known all this groups calling there self names, isis, alkaida, alshabab are not part of Islam they are gangs of thugs well paid by the foreigners to invade different countries in the world for their own interests, eg oil, Islamic is pure religion of Almighty Allah and it will remain to be🙏
Islam in its early day has done all this . even more aggressively . look in to the history . nothing new now just open your eye
Very sad indeed.Once a peaceful country before the discovery of natural gas resources now a hot bed for insurgency. Did we ever ask ourselves why insurgency in Africa crops up only in resource rich countries? Who is funding them? Good examples are Nigeria – oil ( boko haram), DRC – minerals ( Multi groups), Mozambique- Natural gas(islamic state), South Sudan- oil (ethnic groups)
Hmmmm! Islam the religion of peace ,
Hmmmm indian praying to cow
@juba mekerri don’t see any harm there
Praying to a cow is better than praying to a blood thirsty ,child violating propet
Hmm i ate beef
@7 years and we eating your god 🐮🐮💨
What is it anyway they read the Quran they followed Mohamed there’s always a trouble is it question?????
To establish caliphate? Then you beheaded those innocent people trying to earn a living! So your God is happy now?
No brother these people use Islam as an excuse😭
@Mo Farfi or maybe u are just trying to make an excuse for islam
Muhammad did the same exact thing. Islam was spread with rape and murder the letters of Muhammad to the head of state are online.
As long as they target foreigners it is a just and noble thing to do.
You alone cannot fight ISL because this group is sponsored by the big leaders around the world
Barbaric
Classic Islam. This is exactly what pedophile Muhammad taught them to do.
Remember Islam is a religion of peace and diversity is our strength
Union Europa Terroristen 👹👹👹👹
Quran, 8:39, “Kill the Unbelievers. ”
Buhari, 4:241, 56:369, ” Behead those who insult the Prophet,”
So they do, whatever Muhamad commands them to do
U dummfuck u putting those out of context
WW3 seems close, so much bs in the world.
Devils are working hard against Jesus Christ and his people.
A naturally exotic and captivating name – SHEKAU
Islam the religion of peace.
My stepfather was one of the people who fled the Amarula Hotel and their convoy was attacked by the insurgents. He was fortunate to have survived but some of his colleagues weren’t so lucky 😔
What was he doing there
Cap
@SC Most of the Westerners there were working there.
@SC he works for a company that has contracts with Total, the French company that invested in Palma. He and other foreigners were based at the Hotel when the attacks started. He was in one of the cars that was fired upon in the ambush and they went over an embankment which actually saved their lives because other vehicles took the brunt of the gunfire.
Let’s admit we are failing ourselves in allowing this to happen. Do you hear ANY African leaders condemning these atrocities? Doing something to prevent these atrocities? Or do we celebrate our “independence” declaring with bravado we’re not going to export chocolate to Switzerland?
Good point, maybe the press (because it sells more) is also at fault for not asking them for a statement.
The big question is: Where the Money is coming from?
Who is supplying them weapons
CIA*
@Naufal Ramadhan Why would the US support one of its worst enemies?
They are killing others to bring peace, all leaders are killers
The religion of peace.
Peacefully of course.
Lord Jesus Christ have mercy for Africa
Religion of pieces
Ahhh religion at it’s finest….AGAIN!!!! when will africans learn that western nations are ditching religion for a reason.
Yeah i see thts going well for yalls no racism at all
Where’s Executive Outcomes when we need Them? Oh yeah, right.
The causes of unrest may vary but there is an element of community marginalisation in africa
The Africans Union not South Africa .
Africans need to up their game in ridding of corruption and Islamism, then focus on giving people the opportunity
Please don’t believe this propaganda, Can’t you see the link,large capital organisation stealing gas reserves,& pushed out local people , marginalized them some time ago
Now locals are fighting back,& they using media to blame ISIS,how convenient
Let’s not be sheep to the corrupt media , capitalist controlled media, People wake up to the truth,Read between the lines,There’s always hidden agenda,Who created ISIS IN TGE FIRST PLACE,USA ,they call it hornet’s nest,Be careful of media ,
Yet if anyone did this to Africans it would be racism. Why can’t we talk about African racism
don’t worry, white people are waking up to it really quickly.
Oil +ISIS = American companies stealing the oil
Islam, bringing peace to the world, following in the foot steps of Muhammad
symbolic
Judge by yourselves or are you going to Agree with the terrorists that islam is the religion of violence? “[w]hoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land – it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one – it is as if he had saved mankind entirely.” Go 📚
Quran 8:12 “I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieved, so strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes.” ISIS was just following this order. So peaceful..
Again… Islamic again…
Islam = Terror
Religion = Terror
IF ISIS is that barbaric to their hostages, then better if you catch any of them let the heads roll over also!!
Who cares what religion these people align themselves with. Clearly it falls within the confines of a barbaric cult. They need to be stopped.
Seems like only one religion is doing all the beheading, guess you’re not seeing the pattern….
Buried the bodies himself?
Normal that, is it?
Kill the colonizers
Sky news also reported on the same 12 foreigners. My question is, how many _Mozambicans_ have been killed and who’s going to bother to tell _their_ story..?
The international media’s interest is primarily because of the foreign victims.
ISIS fighters should be beheaded when caught.
Saudi Arabia and UAE are funding this…They do this to every country with oil…they want to control the oil market for themselves..
Bingo
I’m cancelling my trip then.
Maybe they should look to China for how to deal with the religion of peace?
Being a god, this break my heart.
Where Islam goes, disorder and chaos follow and civilization dies.
islam.
Wherever there is oil and resources western powers will course political instability to install their own people, as they fight they loot everything, when will you people learn from congo, sudan, libya, iraq, afghanistan.. all have one thing in common, resources!!
Where there is extreme poverty its easy for extremist to flourist
This is when you need executive outcomes.
And these are the people who will tell you eating a bacon sandwich makes you unclean .
Well you are what you eat..
@King Kong I like your sense of humour. Lol
Biden will come to the rescue with his strength and resilience
Thier blood cries to the Almighty just as Abel’s blood did in the day his brother Cain killed him. The Lord will have His vengeance.
I can’t work out from that whose side you’re on.
Look what radical Islamic groups have done to the poor underdeveloped states. 😔
Islam isa peaceful religion
Prayers for Mozambique 🇲🇿 🇹🇿
INSHALLAH these terrorists will be judged for their wrong doings
Bullshit
Religion………what a joke
BLM thinks they are opressed in America.
BLM aren’t saying anything about the massacres in Mozambique. Nor those in Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chad, DR Congo, Ethiopia, Niger, Nigeria or Somalia.
Why chop off their heads? At worst try to get a ransom and let them go.
Islamist extremists have an obsession with beheading.
Demonically possessed like Serial killers, but a gang of them
United sneaks of zionist
You need to stand together & fight them for your future generations & Islam needs reforming causing all this pain
but but… the culture, the food… its beautiful
Hear ye! Judgment is at hand for the wicked evil doers and supporters! Thus saith the mosthigh!
Peace and Harmony.
ISIS the demon of the World.
ERDOGAN is the voice for ISIS
US Zionists created ISIS, and they sent them by the oil fields 😂
