Foreign Flights Threaten Guyana’s Protected Land | Guyana News

Indigenous communities in Guyana’s Kanashen protected area are sounding the alarm over a surge in unauthorized foreign aircraft flying over their land—sometimes as many as six flights a day—linked to illegal mining near the Brazil border. Despite local efforts and promises from officials, including the Minister of Natural Resources, little action has been taken, with delays blamed on rainy weather. The Guyana Defence Force, also hampered by the weather, claims a recent joint operation led to arrests, but regional police deny any such activity. Conflicting reports and lack of accountability leave locals frustrated and vulnerable as their territory and resources face mounting threats.
