1) Summary On March 17, 2025, a gunfight between members of the criminal organization CV (Comando Vermelho) and military police occurred in Anajas, Pará state, Brazil, resulting in the death of one organization member. This is classified as a high-intensity armed conflict that occurred during an arrest operation related to a murder case from March 4.

2) Supply-chain impact

  • Increased criminal organization activity raises security costs for freight transport companies and the risk of delivery delays
  • While the Anajas area is a small city, if security instability spreads throughout Pará state, there are concerns about indirect impacts on logistics for major export products such as soybeans and iron ore
  • Intensified military police operations could cause temporary logistics disruptions through increased road controls and checkpoints

3) Watch points

  • Need to track additional conflicts between CV organization and authorities within Pará state and trends in expanded security operations
  • Monitor security conditions on major Amazon region transportation routes (BR-230, BR-316, etc.) and changes in logistics company operation patterns
