Rwanda, Mozambique forces recapture port city from rebels

Rwandan forces have helped Mozambique’s army recapture the key northern port of Mocimboa da Praia from an armed group. Known locally as al-Shabab, the rebels used the port to launch a series of attacks across the oil and mineral-rich province of Cabo Delgado. Thousands of people have been killed and hundreds of thousands displaced in the past four years because of these attacks.
