Green forest fire notification in Mozambique

On 13/09/2026, a forest fire started in Mozambique, until 18/09/2026.

In plain language

A forest fire has been confirmed in Mozambique, burning between September 13 and 18, 2026. This is currently considered a lower-severity event that is being monitored by local authorities.

What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an uncontrolled fire that spreads through wild areas like forests or grasslands. These fires usually start when a heat source, like lightning or a spark, hits dry fuel like grass or wood. Wind and dry weather help the fire move quickly across the landscape.

If you live nearby, keep your windows closed to stay safe from smoke and always follow the directions of local emergency officials.
