Good morning. Before the rest of today’s newsletter, we have to bring you the terrible news that bodies believed to be those of Dom Phillips and Bruno Pereira have been found in the Brazilian Amazon.
Phillips, a longtime Guardian contributor who was writing a book about the Amazon, and Pereira, a renowned defender of the rights of Brazil’s Indigenous peoples, had been missing since 5 June. Regional police chief Eduardo Fontes said that one of two men arrested in connection to the pair’s disappearance had confessed to killing them and taken officers to the bodies.
