The crisis over the use of chemical weapons in Syria raises many questions, particularly about the moral hysteria being stoked by the US, whose own record challenges its credibility.

Maputo - Mozambique's opposition party Renamo on Monday ended a peace deal with the government, after the Mozambican army attacked its bush camp, raising concerns about security and stability in the country.

Renamo's spokesman Fernando Mazanga said in a statement that the military attack signals the annulment of the 21-year-old peace deal it signed with the Mozambican government in Rome to end a 16-year civil war.

The military intended to kill leader Alfonso Dhlakama, but he managed to escape unscathed to an undisclosed location, Mazanga said.

Mozambique's defence forces confirmed late on Monday that the army had stormed mountainous Satungira, Renamo's guerrilla war-time stronghold, in central Sofala province.

The army surrounded the bush camp for about two days before the surprise attack, forcing the former rebel movement's leader, guarded by an estimated 300 armed militants, to abandon the bush residence where he'd lived for over a year.

Renamo's reaction raises serious concerns about the stability of Mozambique, which is considered one of the fastest-growing African economies after the discovery of off-shore natural gas and coal reserves.

Colonel Christopher Chume, national director of the Defence Police, says the troops were provoked by Renamo guerrillas around noon and fought back strongly and vehemently.

Chume said the army's action was to ensure order in the region.

Renamo became a political party after it signed the peace deal with the government in 1992, but has failed to win any of the major elections since then.

Dhlakama had threatened to boycott the municipal government elections set for November 22, unless the country's election laws were changed to level the ground for the opposition.

Dialogue since the beginning of the year between the government and Renamo on these issues failed to make any progress.

Analysts say it is not immediately clear what Renamo's next move will be, but the rising tension will undoubtedly cast a shadow on the presidential election next year, and has become a concern for investors. – SAnews.gov.za –Xinhua
