Mozambique journalists in hiding after Islamist attack

The military has been trying to contain attacks from Islamist militants

A media body in Mozambique says it is deeply concerned about a group of journalists who have been hiding in the woods in the north of the country for the past 10 days.

The journalists, who work for a community radio station, fled with their families after Islamist insurgents attacked and destroyed their place of work.

The jihadists are still in the area and the journalists say they lack food and water.

More than 50 people were beheaded, including relatives of the journalists, in attacks in Cabo Delgado province in the north.
