A German non-governmental organization (NGO) has filed a legal complaint against French energy giant TotalEnergies. The NGO accuses the company of "complicity in war crimes" in Mozambique.
The allegations stem from the conduct of soldiers guarding a TotalEnergies project site. The complaint claims the company is legally responsible for atrocities these security forces are alleged to have committed.
TotalEnergies has not yet issued a public statement regarding the legal action. The case highlights increasing legal pressure on multinational corporations over their operations in conflict zones.
