It's so uncomfortable. Paying nearly 1 billion dollars and not getting the hellfire missiles is kinda "not cool". Nevertheless, seems the Turkish UTMAS missile is compatible with the choppers. It can be purchased if the US hellfire missiles are unavailable to us.

Mozambican defense forces kill 10 terrorists: report

MAPUTO, March 18 (Xinhua) -- Mozambique defense forces has killed 10 terrorists who attacked the population of Matemo Island in the country's northern province Cabo Delgado on Wednesday midnight, the state media Radio Mozambique reported on Friday.

"An air and maritime force were deployed to the scene where they fought a heavy battle, preliminary data indicates that 10 terrorists were killed and several war materials seized," the report quoted Ernesto Mandungue, spokesperson of the provincial police command in Cabo Delgado, as saying.

The terrorists allegedly entered the Matemo Island disguised as villagers and their presence was reported by the villagers to defense authorities, according to the report.

The report says searches are still being carried out and the navigation around the island areas has been interrupted until security is restored.

On Tuesday night, insurgents dressed in the uniform of Mozambican Defense and Security Forces (FDS) attacked and occupied Matemo island in Ibo district for the second time in two months, burning houses and clashing with government soldiers. As of Thursday, a militant presence remained on the island.
According to a local source, around 20 insurgents wearing military uniform arrived on Matemo on Tuesday evening via the Liwelko neighbourhood, claiming they were there to maintain security, but by 1am they began to set huts ablaze. Sources in contact with relatives on nearby Quirambo island reported spotting an FDS boat at about 3:50 AM, which was joined 40 minutes later by two military helicopters.

On Thursday 17 March, Islamic State social media channels claimed insurgents engaged the government security forces and local militia, killing seven and wounding others. This has not yet been corroborated by other sources.
Matemo island was previously attacked on 1 February, with at least three killed and many buildings burnt down, including the local hospital.

SAMIM repulses ASWJ on Mozambican island
SAMIM (SADC Mission in Mozambique) elements in concert with Forḉas Armadas de Defesa de Moḉambique (FADM) report a successful offensive against Al Sunnah wa Jama’ah (ASWJ) terrorists on an island north of Pemba last week.

Matemo Island is one of the Quirimbas Islands, about 100 km from the port city of Pemba. The island is nearly 24 square kilometres in area with palm groves, beaches and five villages as well as tourist resorts. It is part of a 32-island archipelago including the Ibo, Medjumbe, Quirimba, Metundo, Quisiva, Vamizi and Rolas islands.

A SAMIM communique has it the island was attacked by ASWJ with “a top leader” in command.

“The terrorists lost ground suffering casualties and serious injuries,” the communique states, adding “about eight fatalities” were inflicted on the attackers with terrorist equipment and weapons recovered.

20 terrorists killed in three day battle – AIM report

Africa-Press – Mozambique. The battle for control over Matemo island off the coast of the northern Mozambican province of Cabo Delgado took three days, in which the Mozambican defence and security forces killed 20 islamist terrorists.

According to Joaquim Mangrasse, the Chief of the General Staff of the Mozambican Armed Forces, (FADM), cited by the independent television station STV, four members of the Mozambican forces also died in the clashes.

According to Mangrasse, during the fighting the Mozambican forces destroyed six boats used to carry the terrorists from the mainland. The Mozambican troops were supported by forces of SAMIM, the SADC (Southern African Development Community) Mission in Mozambique.

The terrorists landed on Matemo on 26 March, and the FADM reacted by sending air and naval forces to the island. The authorities imposed an exclusion zone around the island – no vessels were allowed to approach while the clashes continued.

The initial police estimate was that the terrorist group that landed on Matemo consisted of 20 people. If this estimate was accurate, then all the raiders have been killed.
