Following large-scale raids against drug gangs in Rio de Janeiro, over 60 deaths have been reported, including four police officers. These lethal operations took place just a few days before the COP30 climate summit, which will begin on November 10 in Brazil.

The raids reflect the intensification of the authorities' fight against organized crime in the context of a precarious security situation in the city. These tragic events highlight the challenges Brazil faces, both in terms of crime and in organizing major international events.
