This special report focuses on a massive anti-gang operation in Rio de Janeiro, where 2,500 police and soldiers targeted the notorious Red Command cartel in the Complexo do Alemão and Penha favelas. Rio’s Governor, Claudio Castro, called it the ‘biggest such operation in the city’s history’. The raid, which involved helicopters and armored vehicles, resulted in at least 64 deaths, including four police officers, and 81 arrests. While authorities defended the crackdown as a necessary strike against organized crime and ‘narco-terrorism’, the operation has been labelled the most lethal in Rio’s history, sparking condemnation from human rights groups who have demanded a thorough investigation into the violence and alleged abuses.
