{{Four government soldiers were killed and 13 others injured after an ambush by the opposition Renamo forces, Portuguese media reported.}}<\/p>\n
Lusa quoted an eye witness as saying the soldiers were ambushed at Mucodza River, Gorongosa District in Sofala Province.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe government soldiers were in two vehicles escorted by an armoured vehicle,\u201d the report added.
\nRenamo leader Alfonso Dhlakama is believed to be hiding in the conflict-hit Gorongosa District.<\/p>\n
Mr Dhlakama tod clerics in Maputo two weeks ago he had intensified attacks in Mozambique’s central zone to protect himself against the government Security and Defence Forces incursions.<\/p>\n
The southern African country goes to the polls on October 15.<\/p>\n
So far, there is no agreement between Remano and the government to cease fire in the southern African nation.<\/p>\n
Renamo wants its generals to head all army and police units as a condition for laying down arms, while the ruling Frelimo has termed the demands as unrealistic.<\/p>\n
Early this month, Mozambican President Armando Guebuza accused Dhlakama of doing all to derail the elections.<\/p>\n
\u201cThrough criminal attacks against military and civilian targets, Mr Dhlakama is finding a way to obstruct development,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
