“Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva is in intensive care after brain surgery and is recovering ‘well,’ the government announced on Tuesday. The 79-year-old, who is commonly referred to as Lula, underwent a craniotomy procedure to drain a haematoma on his head after an MRI scan showed an ‘intracranial haemorrhage,’ according to a medical note shared by the government. The injury related to a fall at home on October 19 and Lula had been suffering with headaches, the note said.” (12/10/24)
