At least 30 people have died in Mozambique following protests against alleged electoral fraud after the October 9 elections. Demonstrations, led by opposition leader Venâncio Mondlane, who claims victory over the ruling party, have escalated tensions. The central hospital in Maputo reported fatalities linked to recent protests, as police clashed with demonstrators. Mondlane has since fled the country amid security concerns after the murder of two opposition figures. Human rights organizations are decrying the elections as the most fraudulent since 1999, raising alarms over political stability in the region.
