⚠️ Crisis in the Yanomami Territory ⚠️

An acute #health crisis is ravaging the #Yanomami people in Brazil's northern #Amazon, one year on from a major government operation intended to rid the area of illegal #goldminers.

More than 300 #Indigenous people have died in the #territory in the last year, most of them children under five.

There are appalling levels of malnutrition, malaria and flu.
