Brazil中的安全性
人身安全
自2017年以來,巴西的兇殺率一直在下降,從每10萬人31.16人下降到2023年的每10萬人19.28人。然而,犯罪仍然是一個嚴重的問題,尤其是在大城市。扒手和搶包等輕微犯罪主要針對擁擠地區、市場、海灘和公共交通樞紐的遊客。武裝搶劫、劫車和攻擊等暴力犯罪在城市地區晝夜不停地發生。據報道,快速綁架事件時有發生,受害者被短暫扣留,被迫從自動櫃員機提款。約會和吸毒騙局盛行,尤其是在狂歡節期間,犯罪分子會透過約會應用程式或在酒吧鎖定外國人,然後對他們下藥並實施搶劫。您應該避免展示貴重物品、手機或珠寶。幫派活動和有組織犯罪猖獗,與販毒有關。兩大犯罪組織「首都突擊隊」(Primeiro Comando da Capital)和「紅色突擊隊」(Comando Vermelho)控制貧民窟,日益向北部和東北部地區擴張。街頭搶劫通常涉及武器,騎摩托車的盜賊駕車搶劫在聖保羅和阿雷格里港也時有發生。被稱為「arrastões」的大規模搶劫是指成群的犯罪者湧入公共場所搶劫貴重物品。巴西政府已投資加強熱門旅遊區的安全措施,但許多巴西人仍感到不安全,調查顯示,三分之二的人害怕在夜間獨自行走。
極端暴力
貧民窟是巴西各大城市常見的非正式住房區,由全副武裝的販毒集團或民兵組織控制。這些地區的暴力事件涉及敵對犯罪組織之間的領土衝突,頻繁的槍戰會波及無辜的旁觀者。貧民窟的警察行動往往是致命的,2024 年巴西警察平均每天殺害 17 人,總共造成 6,296 人死亡,是美國的八倍。 2019 年在裡約熱內盧,超過 1,800 人在警察衝突中喪生,其中 80% 的受害者是年輕的黑人男性。巴西歷史上四次最致命的警察行動中有三次發生在 2021 年至 2022 年期間,每次都造成 70 多人死亡。民兵組織通常由前任和現任警察組成,控制著許多貧民窟,在進行法外處決的同時向居民勒索保護費。民兵與幫派之間的暴力衝突愈演愈烈,2020-2021年裡約熱內盧報告的死亡人數中有28%是由幫派衝突造成的。巴伊亞州的幫派衝突導致衝突發生地的兇殺案增加了39%。巴西兩大犯罪派系「紅色指揮部」和「第一首都指揮部」於2016年結束了長達20年的停火協議,導致暴力事件激增。武裝團體進行私刑,設立法庭並處決被指控的罪犯。監獄暴力猖獗,暴動頻繁,幫派頭目在監獄內部控制犯罪集團。
政治動盪
2023年1月8日,前總統雅伊爾·博索納羅的支持者衝進巴西利亞的政府大樓,攻擊國會、最高法院和總統府。這起攻擊事件發生在總統路易斯·伊納西奧·盧拉·達席爾瓦就職一周後,超過2000人被拘留。叛亂旨在推翻民選政府,暴徒要求軍事幹預。在博索納羅2022年大選失敗後,數週的路障和抗議活動爆發,支持者阻塞了25個州的高速公路。巴西各城市經常發生抗議、示威和罷工,以回應政治和經濟問題。即使是和平活動也可能演變成對抗並升級為暴力事件。警方大量使用橡皮子彈和催淚瓦斯驅散抗議者。 2024年11月,巴西利亞市中心的三寶廣場發生兩起爆炸。與1月8日事件相關的抗議活動仍在繼續,博索納羅的支持者集會要求在2025年實施大赦,而反抗議者則反對對政變策劃者進行赦免。政治暴力已將官員作為目標,2018年裡約熱內盧市議員瑪麗埃爾·弗朗哥的謀殺案就與民兵組織有關。如果您在大型集會中遇到抗議活動或感到不適,則應立即離開。安保人員被指控支持2023年1月的騷亂或表現出不作為,這引發了人們對警察忠誠度的擔憂。
應避免的區域
任何時候都應避開所有貧民窟,包括那些提供導遊服務的貧民窟。政府的旅行警告對非正式住房開發項目實施了四級限制,並警告旅遊公司和警察都無法保證安全。曾有遊客因意外進入貧民窟而遭到槍擊。貧民窟的安全局勢難以預測,幫派鬥爭和警民衝突有時會超出其範圍。由於安全風險,應避免前往與玻利維亞、哥倫比亞、圭亞那、法屬圭亞那、巴拉圭、秘魯、蘇利南和委內瑞拉接壤 160 公里以內的國際邊界,伊瓜蘇國家公園和潘塔納爾國家公園除外。包括毒販在內的武裝團體會在亞馬遜州的河流中出沒,那裡警察的存在感很低。在巴西利亞,應避開中央汽車站、兩個相鄰的購物中心以及衛星城塞蘭迪亞、聖瑪麗亞、聖塞巴斯蒂安和帕拉諾阿,尤其是在晚上 6 點到早上 6 點之間。在裡約熱內盧,前往科帕卡巴納海灘、伊帕內瑪海灘和拉帕街區時務必小心謹慎。徒步前往基督救世主雕像時務必小心,因為那裡曾發生搶劫事件。在聖保羅,犯罪熱點地區包括市中心、盧斯 (Luz)、聖埃菲格尼亞 (Santa Efigênia)、孔索拉桑 (Consolação) 和塞 (Sé) 等歷史中心街區,以及卡龐雷東多 (Capão Redondo)、維拉克萊門蒂諾 (Vila Clementino) 和坎波林波 (Campolin) 等街區。阿雷格里港和薩爾瓦多的犯罪率很高,幫派暴力活動猖獗。累西腓 (Recife) 海灘有鯊魚攻擊的危險。
