Corpses line Rio streets after deadliest police raid in history • FRANCE 24 English

After a massive police raid on a notorious drug gang, residents of a Rio de Janeiro favela spent all night collecting bodies in trucks from inside and around their urban community and then laying them down in a central square. By early morning Wednesday, at least 50 bodies of mostly young men without shirts were recovered in Penha, one of two sites targeted. The raid killed at least 132 people, making it the deadliest police operation in Brazil’s history.
