Elon Musk's social media platform X, which was banned in Brazil for 40 days in a legal tussle over disinformation, was available again in the country on Wednesday.

The site's return follows the Supreme Court's lifting on Tuesday of its suspension in Brazil, which is the social network's largest Latin American market.
