🌧️ Severe Flooding in Southern Mozambique: Rising Human TollHomes have been completely submerged by floodwaters in Chókwè, Gaza Province 🏠🌊, following days of intense rainfall. Today, one person lost their life in Manhiça ⚠️, bringing the number of fatalities since Friday to nine. Since the start of the rainy season in October, at least 104 people have died nationwide due to floods and related incidents 🕊️Lives, homes, and livelihoods are at risk — sustained attention and action are needed as the rainy season continues. @daddyhope

#Mozambique Crisis: Needs are soaring. New displacement means minimal aid, leaving people sleeping in the open. Children face severe skin diseases; pregnant women lack health care. Hear more: Our Head of Programmes, Marinka Baumann, spoke to LBC.

Violence in #Mozambique has dramatically spilled over to #Nampula, south of Cabo Delgado. Recent attacks have forced an estimated 14,000 families (~72,000 people) to flee to Erati district with almost nothing, many of them women and children.

This week paints the saddest portraits of our continent. #Cameroon, #Côte d’Ivoire, and #Tanzania are burning because selfish tyrants have once again decided to abuse their citizens and trample on their right to choose. Biya, Ouattara, and Suluhu all began by blocking their opponents from running. And even when people managed to unite behind the few remaining opposition candidates, they resorted to their usual tricks : stuffing ballot boxes, fabricating results, and declaring themselves winners. Now, they unleash violence on citizens who dare to protest this daylight robbery. Young people are being killed in the streets for demanding nothing more than respect for their votes. The dictators expect that, after enough blood is spilled, after enough people are arrested, after the internet is shut down, fear will do its work and silence will return. They are counting on our exhaustion to secure another five or seven years of illegitimate power. And, as always, our so-called regional institutions rush to congratulate them. They release their shameful, recycled statements: “we are observing the situation and call for calm and peace.” Words that reek of hypocrisy and cowardice. This is the kind of pain you can’t explain. The pain of seeing your vote stolen and your future crushed in front of your eyes. The pain of growing up in a country where you have no say, no power, no right to decide your destiny. You watch those who created your misery parading in luxury cars, guarded by soldiers you paid for, living off your sweat while you struggle to survive. This is the tragedy of #Africa: a continent with so much brilliance, so much promise, yet held hostage by those who fear the awakening of their own people.

🇹🇿💔 More than 700 protesters killed in #Tanzania since Tuesday. African democracy is bleeding — amid the deafening silence of the region and the world’s indifference. The right to life, to freedom, and to peaceful protest is non-negotiable. When citizens are killed for raising their voices, it is not only politics that fails — it is our shared humanity that collapses. 🕊️ Solidarity with the people of Tanzania. May grief turn into memory, and memory into justice. #Tanzania #HumanRights #Democracy #Africa #CivicSpace #Justice #SADC #AfricanUnion

How many times can you see the same city destroyed during your lifetime? It's unfathomable.

This map from a @cgpgrey (video here buff.ly/3dGR4JV) shows that winning 50.1% of each red state would be enough to become president. That means with only 22% of total US votes you could win an election. Broken system much? Source: buff.ly/3g6IGVq

De conducteur wenst ‘alle pendelaars naar Brussel een fijne dag want zij zijn weer op weg om onze economie te versterken’. Goeien bal! @nmbs #nmbs

Dat Francken mij viseert, ok. Dat is blijkbaar de debatfiche voor deze campagne. Maar tsunami aan migranten is echt niet ok. Dat is ontmenselijken, VB-taal. Een Zwarte Zondag afwenden zou een gedeelde strijd moeten zijn.
