UNHCR has issued a statement regarding the post-election unrest in Mozambique that has led to thousands fleeing their homes, seeking safety in neighboring countries like Malawi and Eswatini. The statement highlights the dire conditions refugees and asylum seekers face, including overcrowded shelters, insufficient food, and inadequate sanitation facilities. It emphasizes the urgent need for support to tackle the worsening crisis and prevent further suffering.The statement expresses gratitude for the generosity of host countries but also underscores the need for additional resources as the situation in both countries becomes critical with the rising number of refugees straining overstretched resources. UNHCR calls on the international community to provide support to host countries and affected populations.The statement also underlines that the current situation is hampering vital humanitarian efforts for communities affected by the recent cyclone, further challenging the response to assist them.
