Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, currently serving a twenty-seven-year sentence for coup plotting, has been approved for temporary release to undergo hernia surgery on Christmas Day. The Supreme Courts Justice Alexandre de Moraes granted the release, despite ongoing political tensions and protests calling for a reduced sentence. Bolsonaro, who has faced serious health issues since being stabbed in 2018, has received support from his son and former US President Trump. However, President Lula da Silva has vowed to veto a bill that could reduce Bolsonaros sentence, setting the stage for further political drama.
