In 2013, several unidentified aerial phenomena began to be observed flying over the Apiwtxa Village, Kampa do Amônia Indigenous Tribe, state of Acre, border with Peru. On July 24, 2014 one of these UAPs descended into the village and fired light beams at the indigenous people. This event prompted a request for help from the indians to the National Indigenous Foundation (FUNAI), which in turn contacted the Federal Police and the Armed Forces so that they could help solve the problem. An investigation was then opened by the Federal Police, with these incidents happening frequently and extending the events until the end of 2014. In 2015 an investigation was also opened by the Federal Public Ministry due to a close encounter of the researcher and anthropologist Carolina Comandulli with one of these phenomena. Also in 2015, the incidents stopped in the Apiwtxa village, but started again in 2016, this time in the Kampa and Isolados do Envira indigenous tribe, when a light phenomenon descended and was received with shotgun fire by an indigenous person who then received a beam of light and had to be hospitalized. The investigation by Rony Vernet, engineer and researcher of unidentified aerial phenomena, culminated in the release of more than 120 pages of official documents by the Brazilian government and more than 20 minutes of videos, including the affected indigenous people testimonials as well as a UAP footage filmed by Paula Colares, who was doing her doctoral research in anthropology in the tribe.
