Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro was released from the hospital early Tuesday, less than 12 hours after being admitted due to abdominal discomfort.
Local TV news network GloboNews showed images of a presidential convoy of cars leaving the hospital on Tuesday in Brasilia as part of its report of the discharge. He was taken for testing after feeling unwell, Communications Minister Fabio Faria said late Monday.
While the government didn’t immediately provide additional details about the president’s condition, website UOL reported that Bolsonaro had been admitted to the Armed Forces hospital on concern that he might be suffering from another intestinal obstruction, citing government officials.
