Update July 10, 2025: DX-World publishes the following info from the team:

The crew arrived late at night on July 7th and quickly realised the QTH was not good for radio. They were located in a small village with very limited infrastructure and electricity, and were not close enough to the sea for vertical antennas. They quickly erected a 40m vertical to get on air, but knew they would have to move QTH the next day.

On July 8th they tried to meet the local governor who would hopefully grant them permission to operate from a remote, but better area within the island, however he would not be available until July 9th. Meantime, to keep on the air, the team were using FT8 mostly. 

Yesterday, July 10th, they finally met the island governor, and after a one hour meeting, it was decided they could move all equiment and belongings to the part of the island they wanted to set up from. This took the entire day, including installing electricity. Today, the guys are extremely tired, but happy knowing the new QTH is much better. You may have already noticed their signal has improved well from the first couple of days.

Vasily, R7AL mentions they will do more CW and SSB soon. Antenna installation at the new site is almost complete. There was no word on when they will QRT from the island. 

Update July 6, 2025: They are now just 27 km (17 miles) from the island. They still have some more travelling to do on dirt-track roads in the morning, but are hopeful on being on the island at some point July 7th barring no last minute issues.

Update July 3, 2025: The team started their long journey to Mozambique from Moscow. Once they arrive in C9, there is a 1500 km road trip to get to the region where Inhacamba Island is located. This is expected to be a long, ardous journey with perhaps some as yet unknown obstacles in the way. Anticipated QRV date is July 5th.

Members of the Russian DXpedition Team (RUDXT) will be activating two IOTA islands in the month of July. The post the following info on their Web page:
"Dear DXers!

We are pleased to announce our upcoming IOTA expedition to the Republic of Mozambique, in South-East Africa. Actually, we have been planning this trip since 2022, but had to postpone each time due to the lack of logistics.

Please note (!!) that we are not giving any promises to anyone because it's quite a difficult and risky project!

The success of this activity will highly depends on many factors: road conditions, local assistance, etc...

We'll try to spend 6-7 days on each island, depending on local conditions, so the approx. schedule will be as follows:
            C94RRC (AF-103) ~ July  5-11th, 2025
            C93RRC (AF-098) ~ July 13-19th, 2025
     Anyway, we'll be posting updates on regular basis.

Hopefully, we'll be able to run at least 2 high-power stations 24/7 on CW, SSB and FT8.

Our goal is to work as many unique stations as possible, paying attention to distant regions and low-pistols.

  Our equipment:
    Radios -- 2x Expert Electronics SunSDR2DX and 2x Yaesu FT-891
    Power Amps -- Expert 1.3K-FA and EB-500
    Antennas -- VDAs (20-17-15-12-10); Verticals 30 & 40m. and 5-element for 6m

  You can Donate to this IOTA-project here. Thank you very much!!

  The operators mentioned are: Slav/OK8AU, Victor/UA3QLC and Vasily/R7AL.

LOG AND QSL INFO:
  They will upload their QSOs to ClubLog at least twice a day. You can check your CFM using the form below or directly on ClubLog's Web site.
  They will use "DXpedition Mode", so you can see all the statistics, best time to work them from your region, etc....
  If you are not in the log, the best way is to try to work them again.
All missed QSOs/busted callsigns, etc emails must go to (rv6ali@yandex.ru) and they will be processed only after the DXpedition!

You can use OQRS to request QSL-card. Direct OQRS will give you fast LoTW CFM when they get back from the DXpedition. They expect this to be 3-4 days after we QRT.
For those who provided support before and during the expedition, a card will be sent to their home address automatically. Bureau QSL-card request is free of charge....
