This is the best summary I could come up with:
Brazil’s Supreme Court denied a request by former President Jair Bolsonaro for the return of his passport so he could travel to Israel, an official document revealed on Friday.
Bolosonaro’s lawyers said in a statement on Thursday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had invited Bolsonaro to an event in May.
Bolsonaro’s passport was seized in February amid a probe into his alleged attempted coup that came after he lost the 2022 election to his rival and successor, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
While far-right Bolsonaro remains a key ally of Netanyahu, leftist Brazilian leader Lula has been declared “persona non grata” by the Israeli government.
Lula accused Israel of “genocide” in Gaza and claimed its military campaign was akin to Adolf Hitler’s extermination of an estimated 6 million Jews during the Second World War.
According to the Hamas-led Health Ministry in Gaza, over 62,600 people have died in the Palestinian enclave since Hamas launched the October 7 attacks.
