Green forest fire notification in Mozambique

On 14/09/2026, a forest fire started in Mozambique, until 20/09/2026.

In plain language

A forest fire has been confirmed in Mozambique between September 14 and September 20, 2026. It is currently rated as a lower-level "green" event, meaning experts are monitoring it closely.

What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in natural areas like forests or grasslands. They usually start when the weather is very dry and something ignites the fuel, like a lightning strike or a campfire. Once started, wind and dry plants help the fire spread quickly across the landscape.

If you are near a fire, stay indoors to avoid breathing smoke and always follow instructions from local emergency leaders.
