I sure hope Antifa is on their way to help those drug dealers with their cute umbrellas...

great point.
the drug gang that was the primary target of this raid was formed when petty criminals and leftist activists made a prison alliance back in the late 70's or early 80's.

the media reports that they are no longer 'political', and this may be true overall, however, local commentators have reported that gang members use the political ideology to justify their actions.

The number of people known to have been killed in a deadly police raid in the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday has risen to 132, officials say.

This is more than double the figure cited after the police operation in the favelas (poor neighbourhoods) of Alemão and Penha, in the north of Rio de Janeiro, on Tuesday.

Many of the bodies had reportedly been retrieved from a nearby hillside, where police said most of the deadly clashes had unfolded.

Challenged by journalists about earlier remarks he had made describing those killed as "criminals", Governor Castro replied: "To be quite honest with you, the conflict wasn't in a built-up area, it was all in the woods. So I don't believe anyone was just strolling in the woods on a day of conflict. And that's why we can easily classify them."

According to the police, gang members also used drones to drop explosives on the officers as they fanned out through the neighbourhoods, which are strongholds of the Red Command.

"This is how the Rio police are treated by criminals: with bombs dropped by drones. This is the scale of the challenge we face. This is not ordinary crime, but narco-terrorism," Governor Castro, said.

Governor Castro said that the raid had been two months in the planning and was based on a thorough investigation.

Among those arrested is a man accused of being a leading drug dealer for the Red Command.

Penélope Charmosa was considered a trusted figure by the main local drug trafficking leaders. According to reports, she was responsible for protecting escape routes and defending strategic drug sales points.

At the time of the confrontation, she was wearing camouflage clothing and a tactical vest with compartments for rifle magazines, reinforcing her active role as a soldier for the faction.

But still... can anyone explain her choice regarding this camo suit? Flip Flops?
