Overview
- Dozens of indigenous activists and supporters forced their way into the COP30 Blue Zone on Tuesday night, breaking a door and moving past metal detectors.
- Confrontations followed with UN security as Brazilian soldiers formed lines, and BBC reporters said delegates were urged to leave.
- Social media footage showed large groups chanting and waving flags in conference hallways, with some participants carrying signs such as "Our forests are not for sale."
- At least one security officer was reportedly injured, though the severity has not been confirmed.
- The group exited as barriers were erected, entrances were locked and heavily guarded, and on‑site security remained under UN police with more indigenous‑led demonstrations scheduled.
