Mozambique Opposition Protest Turns Violent as Police Open Fire

Mozambican police fired live ammunition at opposition supporters during a protest march in the capital, Maputo, injuring at least 14 people.

The demonstration was led by opposition leader Venâncio Mondlane, who has been critical of a political agreement between the president and various parties, calling it disconnected from the people. Reports indicate that Mondlane's whereabouts remain unknown following the crackdown. Human rights groups have condemned the violence, raising concerns over political repression in the country.

The incident underscores rising tensions ahead of potential political reforms in Mozambique.
