Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro underwent a successful surgery for a double hernia, with doctors expecting five to seven days of hospitalisation. Bolsonaro, currently serving a 27-year prison sentence for an attempted coup, left prison temporarily for the procedure. The surgery was for an inguinal hernia, and doctors are considering an additional procedure for recurrent hiccups. His son, Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, announced that his father had appointed him as the Liberal Party’s presidential candidate for the upcoming election.
