Paulo Paulino Guajajara
- ... that Guajajara environmental activist and land defender Paulo Paulino Guajajara, who worked to stop the deforestation of the Amazon rainforest, was killed by a group of illegal loggers?
Paulo Paulino Guajajara was shot in the head on Friday, according to the Guajajara tribe in northern Brazil. He was a member the Guardians of the Forest, which was started by the Indigenous tribe in 2012 to ward off illegal loggers and miners.
The tribe said loggers ambushed a group of forest guardians, killing Guajajara and wounding another. A logger also died in the shootout, the tribe and state authorities said.
Brazil's federal police are investigating.
The attack comes amid an increased number of invasions on Indigenous reservations since President Jair Bolsonaro took office and promised to open the land up to economic development."
