(2) Report  of  operations Qctober 65/December 65-
The  Provisional Action  Council  of   COEE&0,after analysing   the  grave  and
explosive  situation  prevailing in our country Mozambique,decided  to make
a  strategic  and  tactical plan of  fighting against  the  Portuguese  fascist,
The   Provisinal  action  council  took  its   strategic and   tactical  plan
and  instructed  its  guerrilla  commanders   inside  the   Country to  intesify
their activities  more   special in  the  central  part  of Mozambique.As  result   of  the  glorious  decision  that  was  taken by  our Revolutionary  Council
many  operations  v/ere   taken not   only in   the  particular areas  where   our
provisional   council  emphasised  but   also  in Manica   e   Sofala  and  Niassa
Districts  v/here   we  also  have   our Guerrilla   units.
Even  though &h±& we have  done  many military preparations  bu much of
our time  during  this  few months  has  been  stressed   on  Political  education,
Political  education amongst  our fighters  has  been given prime  importance  because  v/e  have  learnt mistakes  that  have  been  commited  by our
friends.And  in  all  the  places v/here  our guerrillars are  operating we
have   established  Party Branches  and  apart  from that we  have   also   carried
on Military  training •Many  training bases  have   been  established  -where
cadres  who   are   trained   in  some  friendly  countries  are   training  others.

Portuguese   African  Soldiers   deserted   the  Portuguese   army and   joined  our
forces  together with their arms*And from the   21  st  October to  December
23rd,1965,our heroic  guerrillars -annihilated  18  Portuguese  soldiers  and
woundsrlg more   than   7 in  the  areas  of  &ambuo,«3umbo.Fingoe  and  Tete.And
