Dancing On Graves in Mozambique 🌟 A civil NGO says it isn’t going to allow French oil and gas major TotalEnergies to hush up war crimes in Mozambique. ➡️The European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights has filed a complaint with French prosecutors accusing TotalEnergies of complicity in war crimes, torture and enforced disappearance linked to its Mozambique LNG project in Cabo Delgado. ➡️ Since 2024 TotalEnergies has been suspected of complicity in the so-called "container massacre", where the soldiers of the Joint Task Force, a unit of Mozambican army working almost as a PMC for TotalEnergies, allegedly detained, tortured and killed civilians near the Afungi gas site between July and September 2021. ➡️ This filing comes as TotalEnergies just announced the lifting of the force majeure declared in April 2021, planning to restart pumping gas by 2029. If the complaint in Paris holds, it will be a complete disgrace for Mozambique: a court on the other side of the world can protect ordinary people better than their own government, which is pumping gas out from under their feet.
