Before we go, a note about one item in yesterday’s Daily: an interview with a Red Cross official, published in this week by Voice of America, was in fact conducted in August and may therefore have created a misleading impression of the current situation in Cabo Delgado.
The official quoted, ICRC Mozambique’s communication coordinator Mariana Camaroti, clarified for Zitamar that “Our teams see constant movement of newly displaced people fleeing violence, while others return to their villages of origin. Safe access to these people in need is crucial for the ICRC to provide humanitarian assistance. Our principles of neutrality and impartiality help us achieve this.”
