Only recently, the South African-sponsored armed bandits added to their macabre record the cold-blooded massacre of hundreds of innocent women, children and old people at Homoine and elsewhere in Mozambique. The banditry of these, groups has caused much loss of life and property and unimaginable suffering and has Left permanent physical and psychological scars on the people of these countries. In Mozambique alone, an alarming number of children die as a result of this banditry. Hundreds of thousands of persons have had to flee from Mozambique and Angola, thus presenting a refugee problem of a magnitude that the region is finding difficult to cope with.
