notes: On 1 June 2021, members of an Islamist militia in Quiterajo (Macomia, Cabo Delgado) clashed with Mozambican Defense and Security Forces. The fighting appeared to be part of a government offensive against the positions of the members of the Islamist militia near the Messalo River, just north of Quiterajo. Smoke from the area of the battle was seen as far south as Chilongo, in the Mucojo administrative post. No fatalities and/or injuries reported.
