On October 1, 2024, Major General Emmy K. Ruvusha, Commander of the Rwanda Security Forces (RSF), participated in the 11th Operations Coordination meeting held in Pemba, the capital of Cabo Delgado Province in northeastern Mozambique. This key meeting brought together representatives from the Mozambique Armed Forces, the Tanzanian Bilateral Force delegation, and local forces. During the proceedings, General Ruvusha expressed the commitment of the RSF to escalate offensive operations against terrorist groups in their designated areas, with the objective of thwarting their operational capabilities and denying them the ‘freedom of action’. This assurance was communicated as part of a statement from the Rwanda Defence Force on X. Prior to this meeting, Admiral Joaquim Mangrasse, Chief of General Staff of the Mozambique Armed Forces, convened a high-level discussion with General Ruvusha on September 27 in Pemba. This prior meeting concentrated on evaluating the ongoing initiatives aimed at restoring peace and security in a region that has been significantly affected by terrorism.
The ongoing instability in Cabo Delgado Province has drawn significant international attention due to the presence and activities of terrorist groups. Mozambique, with assistance from international partners such as Rwanda and Tanzania, has been engaged in coordinated efforts to combat these threats and restore peace in the region. The collaboration among the various military delegations reflects a strategic commitment to regional security and the shared goal of eradicating terrorist activities that infringe upon the safety and sovereignty of nations in this area.
In summary, the continued collaboration between the Rwanda Security Forces and their counterparts from Mozambique and Tanzania underscores a collective resolve to address the challenges posed by terrorism in Cabo Delgado Province. Through operational meetings and the assurance of intensified military actions, the involved parties are striving to secure the region and restore stability.
