In Cabo Delgado, Mozambique, nearly 60,000 people have fled due to escalating attacks linked to ISIL-affiliated fighters. The International Organization for Migration reports that 57,034 people, including over 42,000 from the Chiure district, have been displaced. A significant number of those displaced are children. Although humanitarian responses have begun, they are insufficient given the ongoing funding cuts to aid. The UN's 2025 humanitarian appeal is only 19% funded. The region has experienced over 6,100 deaths tied to the conflict, now in its eighth year, underscoring the dire humanitarian crisis.
