The Zimbabwe Independent has reported that Zimbabwe’s security forces are on high alert amid threats of infiltration along the Zimbabwe-Mozambique border.
These reports come when RENAMO, an opposition party in Mozambique and Islamist fighters have escalated their revolt against that country’s government along the border.
The insurgency was reportedly triggered by the “disputed” 2019 elections which were monitored and endorsed by the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Electoral Observer Mission that was being chaired by Zimbabwe.
The Zimbabwe Independent also reports that President Emmerson Mnangagwa has approached SADC in a bid to persuade the regional grouping leaders to consider a joint military operation to assist Mozambique in its battle to contain the twin rebellions which have gathered momentum in the past three years.
The publication also claims that the Zimbabwean government has deployed elite troops to assist the Mozambican government with strategies on how to track down the insurgents.
The Zimbabwean Minister of Defence, Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri, however, dismissed reports which suggest that the country deployed troops to Mozambique.
The alleged deployment of soldiers had reminded some of the deployment of troops to the Democratic Republic of Congo which had far-reaching economic and humanitarian consequences.

Of course Zim troops have been deployed to Moz to fight the alShabaab; Zim needs the money, but all we will get is terrorist activity in Victoria Falls by these guys. That’s why Zim is issuing this warning.
Where is my comment?
They seem to censor comments (not allow comments they deem others should not see), remember we do not enjoy the right to free speech as other countries enjoy….. well that they enjoyed is what I should say as globalist entities like Google, YouTube and Facebook have shown they are the moral principals to decide what people can see and say…… The “Free world” is just a myth for now in this day and age brother.
