In plain language

A forest fire has been confirmed in Mozambique between October 10 and 15, 2026. It is currently at a lower severity level, and officials are monitoring the situation.

What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in wild areas like forests or grasslands. These fires form when a heat source, such as lightning or a spark, meets dry plants and plenty of oxygen. Once it starts, the fire can spread quickly if it is windy or very dry.

If smoke is in the air, stay indoors with windows shut and listen to local news for official instructions and updates.
