Brazil's head of state Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has been admitted to hospital following a brain haemorrhage. Following an operation, the 79-year-old is now in intensive care.

The immediate intervention on Tuesday night was "without complications", according to a statement from the Syrian-Lebanese Hospital in São Paulo, which was published on the president's Instagram account. Lula is doing well and is under observation in the intensive care unit.

Injured in a fall in the bathroom
Lula had fallen in his bathroom on October 19 and injured the back of his head. According to the doctors, the 79-year-old now complained of headaches. The brain haemorrhage was then diagnosed during an MRI scan.

Following the accident, Lula canceled his participation in the summit of the BRICS states in Kazan, Russia. He also did not attend the UN Climate Change Conference COP29 in Azerbaijan. Until further notice, Vice President Geraldo Alckmin will take over the official duties of the Brazilian head of state.
