Search and rescue operations in Brazil

Overview

Emergency services in Brazil have conducted various search and rescue operations involving missing persons in wilderness and aquatic environments.

In late September, authorities in Paraíba used thermal camera drones to locate a disoriented man who had fallen in a wooded area near Serrote Liso. Simultaneously, in the Serra Catarinense region, K9 units assisted in finding a 27-year-old man suffering from dehydration after his vehicle became stuck near Capão Alto.

By mid-October, operations shifted toward drowning incidents. In Pará, search efforts for a 19-year-old who fell from a jet-ski in the Tucuruí dam lake were paused due to extreme water depths and low visibility. In Mato Grosso, rescuers recovered the body of a 24-year-old student who had disappeared while swimming during a camping trip near Salto Magessi.
