Friends of the Earth International expresses solidarity with the people of Mozambique following elections on October 9, which opposition parties and observers describe as fraudulent. The organization denounces the brutal state repression of protests, which has resulted in at least 34 confirmed deaths and the use of live ammunition by police, particularly in Maputo. The statement links this political instability to deep poverty—affecting 73% of the population—and the exploitation of natural resources by transnational companies in collusion with political elites. It demands an end to state violence, the investigation of killings, the restoration of internet and expression freedoms, and a transition toward an equitable development model that respects the rights of local communities and indigenous peoples.
