Ranchers block Indigenous land demarcation work in Brazil

Ranchers block Indigenous land demarcation work in Brazil

Ranchers are blocking officials from marking the boundaries of Paquiçamba, land traditionally occupied by the Juruna people in Brazil.

The work has been delayed, and clashes have interrupted officials.

Marking the boundaries is required before the land can be formally registered.

The land is also affected by the Belo Monte dam project.
