C9     - In July, members of the Russian DXpedition Team will attempt to operate from two IOTA groups in Mozambique. They are unable to make any promises at this time as the project is quite challenging and risky, and its success will depend on a number of variables, including road conditions and the availability of local assistance.
The approximate schedule is as follows:
5-11 July    C94RRC   Inhacamba Island (AF-103)
13-19 July   C93RRC   Chiloane Island (AF-098)
Hopefully, they will be able to run at least two high-power stations 24/7 on 40-6 metres CW, SSB and FT8. QSLs via Club Log's OQRS. See https://dxpedition.wixsite.com/mozambique2025 for more information.
For the record, AF-098 was only activated once (C93DY, July-August 2005), whereas AF-103 was activated twice (C94KF, August 2006, and C91VB/4, December 2006).

CE     - Cezar VE3LYC, Felipe XQ7IR, and Johan PA3EXX will attempt to operate as 3G1P from the Islotes Pajaros (SA-100, new one for IOTA) between 18 and 23 August. Depending on the available space, they intend to operate 2 or 3 stations, as much as possible around the clock, on 40-10 metres. They will prioritize CW and SSB, but they will also be active on FT8 (F/H). QSL via Club Log's OQRS (direct or bureau), or direct to VE3LYC.
"One of these two rocks has a round shape with a diameter of just under 60 m, while the second one is oval in shape, about 60 by 30m. Both rocks are very rugged, and landing can only be attempted by swimming to them and pacing against the waves. They also have very steep slopes, and host colonies of sea lions and cormorants. This is a daring project, involving a number of hazards and risks, and the team hopes that island chasers and DXers at large will support their effort": see https://3g1psa-100.weebly.com/ for more information.
