Green forest fire notification in Mozambique

On 13/10/2026, a forest fire started in Mozambique, until 21/10/2026.

In plain language

A forest fire has been confirmed in Mozambique, burning between October 13 and October 21. This is a level 2 event, which means it is a moderate fire being tracked by officials.

What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. These fires often start during dry seasons when heat, lightning, or human activity ignites dry leaves and wood. Once a fire begins, wind and dry plants act as fuel, helping the flames spread across the landscape.

If you are in an affected area, stay indoors with windows closed and follow instructions from local emergency services to stay safe.
