    The Wider Image: Gold miners bring fresh wave of suffering

    An Indigenous child carries a basket on their head while crossing an official airstrip, next to a plane used by government officials, at the Auaris Base Hub, in Yanomami Indigenous land, Roraima state, Brazil, January 10, 2024. The Brazilian military reduced operations in mid-2023 and stopped transporting fuel for Ibama's helicopters to forward bases inside the reservation, limiting their range across the giant territory. The Air Force has not enforced a no-fly zone, despite being ordered to do so by Lula in April, while the Navy is not doing enough to blockade rivers that are the miners' main access for machinery and supplies, three Ibama officials said.

    ABOUT QUEWS

    We are a news service born out of a global loss of confidence in media and destabilising polarisation of attitudes. We believe it is possible, indeed necessary, to create a public forum where vital issues of the day are discussed, debated, analysed and circulated.
