7,000 Indigenous Rally in Brasilia Against Land Grabs and Belo Sun Gold Mine

Around 7,000 Indigenous people from 200 groups marched in Brasilia on April 22, 2026, protesting land rights violations tied to farming, mining, and logging. The event, second day of the 2026 Free Land Camp, targets the Belo Sun gold mine project and urges President Lula to uphold Amazon protections. Researchers note Indigenous territories as key to curbing Amazon deforestation and global climate regulation.
