Pope Leo expresses 'closeness' to people of Cabo Delgado in Mozambique

Pope Leo XIV expressed "closeness to the population of Cabo Delgado, in Mozambique, victims of a situation of insecurity and violence that continues to cause deaths and displacements", during Angelus prayer. Jihadist insurgents in northern Mozambique have multiplied their attacks in the past weeks, causing mass displacements ahead of the possible resumption of construction on TotalEnergies' huge natural gas project in the region.
