In its request submitted on 10 October 2013 for a 10-month extension of Mozambique’s Article 5 deadline, Mozambique included a projection that by 1 March 2014 the remaining mined areas would be reduced to 100 tasks totalling 4,019,952square meters. As of 20 March 2014, the actual amount of mined area remaining in the country was reduced to 130 tasks totalling 5,379,947 square meters. The fact that the number of demining tasks and mined area remains above the projection is due to additional incidents of insecurity that occurred between October 2013 and February 2014 in the northern districts of Inhambane Province and some districts of Sofala province. The temporary insecurity in these areas led the demining operators to temporarily withdraw teams from these areas and therefore delayed completion of the demining tasks in these districts. The Government of Mozambique is doing everything within its power to ensure a secure and stable situation for demining teams to be able to safely access and conduct demining operations in accordance with the national mine action plan. As a result the security situation in Inhambane Province improved in January 2014 and humanitarian demining operators deployed teams to the remaining mine suspected districts in Inhambane in February with an aim to conclude by the end of September 2014. While the amount of mined area and demining tasks remains above the projection included in the extension request, the demining capacity currently deployed in the country is still capable of completing the clearance and release of all known mined areas by the end of the extension period on 31 December 2014. The 2014 annual work plans of the National Demining Institute and all operators in Mozambique aim to complete the clearance and release of all known mined areas by the end of 2014. However, the full implementation of the annual work plans will depend on sufficient resources being allocated in timely manner and a stable security situation that allows the demining teams to access all areas suspected or confirmed to contain landmines. Mozambique will continue to inform State Parties of progress towards the completion of demining obligations under Article 5. The National Demining Institute will endeavour to submit quarterly progress reports to the analysis group. The next report will be submitted in July 2014. II. DETAILED NARRATIVE 1.0 INTRODUCTION: Mozambique’s Extension Request March to December 2014 In 2013, the Government of Mozambique submitted to State Parties a request to extend their existing Article 5 deadline by ten months, from the 1st of March 2014 until the 31st of December 2014. Mozambique’s 2013 extension request described several circumstances that had impeded 3 Mozambique from destroying all anti-personnel mines in known mined areas by its original deadline. These circumstances included: that Mozambique ended up having to deal with almost three times as much area known or suspected to contain mines than was originally thought to be the case in 2008 (i.e., approximately 34.3 million square metres versus the original estimate of approximately 12.1 million square metres). Heavy rains and flooding from January to March 2013, delayed the start of demining operations Manica, Inhambane and Sofala. Limited availability of mechanical demining assets in the provinces of Manica and Sofala has led to slow progress in a number of demining tasks in the Districts of Cheringoma, Gondola and Nhamatanda. Temporary Insecurity in the Province of Sofala led the humanitarian demining operator in the area to suspend operations in the district out of concern for deminers and demining equipment. Complex and dense minefields along the Mozambique-Zimbabwe Border with difficult access from Mozambique present a particular challenge to demine before the original March 2014 deadline. In its revised extension request dated 30 September 2013, Mozambique estimated that by 1 March 2014, there would remain roughly 100 mine suspected areas covering 4,019,952 square meters in the three central Provinces of Sofala, Manica and Tete including the 5 minefields that straddle the Mozambique-Zimbabwe border covering a total of 1,077,966 square meters. The extension request presented a plan to concentrate all demining capacity from March to December 2014 on these remaining areas in order to conclude the destruction of all anti-personnel mines in the known mined areas.

This included all associated costs for quality assurance, information management, coordination and training for a national capacity that will respond to the threat of residual UXOs and Explosive Remnants of War other than landmines that will inevitably remain after the 2014 deadline. 2.0 2013 Demining Results and Mine Action Progress until 1 March 2014 In 2013, a total of 9,329,546 square meters in 592 hazard areas were cleared and released by all demining operators (i.e. Apopo, HALO Trust, Handicap International, Norwegian People’s Aid, Commercial Operators and Armed Defence Forces of Mozambique). As a result of demining efforts, by December 2013 a total of 111 districts in Mozambique were officially declared ‘Mine-Free’ out of a total of 128 Districts, including all districts in the Provinces Gaza, Niassa, Nampula, Cabo Delgado and Zambezia.
