During the height of apartheid, security forces carried out a raid on ANC houses in Matola, Mozambique, where 16 South Africans and one Portuguese national were killed. Most of the victims were members of Umkhonto We Sizwe in 1981. In a SADF raid on Matola in 1983 at least 6 people died including 2 children and 26 people wounded.
