One dead and two thousand displaced: attack destroys Carlos Queiroz's camp in Mozambique

SAPO Notícias5 September 2026 at 10:02

An attack destroyed Carlos Queiroz's camp in Mozambique, resulting in the death of at least one person and the displacement of approximately two thousand people. The camp, which functioned as a support structure or operational base, was completely hit during the violent action.

The attackers did not limit themselves to destroying the camp. They also set fire to vehicles belonging to Queiroz's structure, a health center and a police station in the region. The attack demonstrates an escalation of violence that affected not only the Portuguese coach's team but also public infrastructure essential to the local population.

Carlos Queiroz, former national coach of Portugal and former manager of teams such as Real Madrid and Manchester United, maintains activities in Mozambique. The destroyed camp was part of his operations in the African country, although the specific details about the nature of these operations are not entirely clear from the article.

The incident occurs in a context of persistent insecurity in Mozambique, where attacks on infrastructure and population displacement have been recurring. The simultaneous destruction of civilian and security facilities indicates the gravity of the situation and the broad impact on affected communities.

Image of the day | The Mafra Station

The Mafra Station, located on the Oeste Line between Lisbon and Figueira da Foz, is about eight kilometres from the town of Mafra and preserves the nineteenth-century architecture typical of this centenary railway line. The most distinctive element of the station is its tile panels, created in 1934 by António de Castro Mourinho, Álvaro Pedro Gomes and Mário Salvador, depicting scenes from the region such as the Mafra Convent and the Tapada de Mafra. Forming part of a particular tradition of the Oeste Line, where several stations were decorated with tile panels, the Mafra Station represents an example of how this deeply Portuguese material was used to transform railway transit spaces into small galleries of folk art, constituting a living testament to an artistic and railway tradition that deserves to be preserved.
