Brazil arrests five officers in alleged coup plot against President Lula
Brazilian police have arrested five officers linked to a coup plot aimed at overthrowing the government and assassinating President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. The arrested individuals include four military personnel and one police officer. The investigation revealed plans to also target Vice President Geraldo Alckmin and Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes. Arrest warrants were executed alongside searches and the seizure of suspects' passports. These developments follow earlier statements from military leaders about former President Jair Bolsonaro's attempts to remain in power after losing the 2022 election. President Lula has not publicly commented on the arrests while attending the G20 summit.
