Thousands of people turn up to a rally called by former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro in Sao Paulo, to reject claims he plotted a coup with allies to remain in power after his failed 2022 reelection bid. Investigators say the far-right ex-army captain led a plot to falsely discredit the Brazilian election system and prevent the winner of the vote, leftist President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, from taking power. A week after Lula took office on January 1, 2023, thousands of Bolsonaro supporters stormed the presidential palace, Congress and Supreme Court, urging the military to intervene to overturn what they called a stolen election.

Rabat, May 16 (EFE/EPA).- Thousands of Moroccan across the country on Sunday demonstrated in support of Palestinans and to protest against Israeli attacks on Gaza strip.An Israeli military spokesman said a total of 2,900 rockets have been fired by Palestinian militants since the start of the violence, with 450 of them going down over Gaza without reaching Israeli territory while 1,150 were intercepted by Israel's Iron Dome anti-missile system.At least 10 people have died in Israel in the rocket attacks.Escalating tensions boiled over due to Palestinians' frustrations with strict health measures imposed during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan and the proposed forced evictions of Palestinian families from the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah to make way for Jewish settlers, which led to clashes at a Jerusalem holy site.
