    "The removal of illegal miners from the Munduruku Indigenous Territory marked a crucial moment in territorial reconfiguration. However, the physical removal of gold miners does not end the conflict but rather ushers in new dynamics.

    A portion of the Indigenous population has moved to the urban center of Jacareacanga, increasing pressure on precarious infrastructure and limited public services.

    The breakdown of informal economic networks associated with gold mining, combined with the absence of structural policies to support sustainable production in the villages, has contributed to increased social vulnerability.

    At the same time, the weakening of the gold mining economy has created space for criminal factions to operate in urban areas, highlighting the convergence of different illicit markets, such as gold, drugs, and weapons.

    The territory is thus now contested not only between the state and gold miners but also by criminal organizations that exploit the institutional vacuum and socioeconomic fragility."

  7. On the 1st day of #testimony in #HunterBiden’s federal #gun trial, #jurors heard his audio of his memoir, where he recounted his #drug use in graphic detail.

    Prosecutors showed the jury the laptop belonging to Hunter that has long been a target of #RightWing activists & politicians, spurred by #Trump & #RudyGiuliani’s #ConspiracyTheories.

  8. Experimental #antibiotic kills deadly #superbug, opens whole new class of #drugs
    Relatively large molecule clogs a transport system, leading to lethal toxicity. In this case, the new #drug—dubbed #zosurabalpin—fights off the #GramNegative #bacterium carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, aka CRAB. Though it may sound obscure, it's an opportunistic, invasive #bacteria that often strikes hospitalized and critically ill patients, causing deadly #infections worldwide. arstechnica.com/science/2024/0
