Brazilian ex-president Jair Bolsonaro "actively participated" in a 2022 coup plot to prevent his successor, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, from taking office, police alleged in a report made public Tuesday.

Bolsonaro was also "fully aware" of an alleged plan by elite soldiers to assassinate Lula, his vice president and a Supreme Court judge, said the report, which has been handed to Brazil's attorney general.

Attorney General Paulo Gonet is examining these explosive allegations to see if the evidence supports charges being laid against Bolsonaro and 36 other people named as co-conspirators.

The 884-page report drawn up after a nearly two-year police investigation urges Gonet to indict Bolsonaro and the others for planning an attempted coup and seeking to "violently overthrow the democratic state."

The document details alleged collusion between Bolsonaro and some of his officials, including members of his military brass, to claim fraud in the 2022 elections won by Lula and to use decrees to sideline the Supreme Court.

"The then-President of the Republic, Jair Bolsonaro, actively participated in the creation of the coup plan, being directly involved in the drafting of documents and strategies to remain in power, even after the electoral defeat," the report said.

"He was one of the central figures in the meetings to define the steps and actions to be taken," it alleged.

<h2>- Bolsonaro says innocent -</h2>

 
The report was made public by the Supreme Court judge overseeing the case, Alexandre de Moraes -- one of the targets of the alleged assassination plot.

That alleged plot, which police said was codenamed "Green and Yellow Dagger," led to the arrests last week of four elite soldiers and a police officer. They were suspected of planning to poison Lula in 2022.

Bolsonaro, president between 2019 and 2022, has denied the coup allegation and says he is the victim of "persecution."

"The term 'coup d'etat' has never been part of my lexicon," he told a news conference on Monday.

The 69-year-old former army captain lost the October 2022 elections to Lula, a left-winger who was previously president between 2003 and 2010.

Multiple investigations have been launched in Brazil over suspected plots against Lula and his administration.

An insurrection that took place in Brasilia on January 8, 2023, when thousands of Bolsonaro supporters stormed the capital's presidential palace, the Congress building and the Supreme Court, was the most striking of those seen publicly.

Investigations continue into that upheaval, which echoed scenes from the United States two years earlier, when supporters of Donald Trump protesting President Joe Biden's election win attacked the US Capitol in Washington on January 6, 2021.

Among those named as co-conspirators in the alleged coup were: Bolsonaro's defence minister, General Walter Braga Netto; the head of Bolsonaro's conservative Liberal Party, Valdemar Costa Neto; Ailton Goncalves Moraes Barros, a retired military man already indicted in two other investigations; Colonel Alexandre Castilho Bitencourt da Silva; and Admiral Almir Garnier Santos.

Bolsonaro has already been declared ineligible to hold public office until 2030 for having made unsubstantiated claims of fraud in Brazil's electronic voting system.&nbsp;

He has been prohibited from leaving the country while a vast probe named "Tempus Veritatis" ("the time of truth" in Latin) continues. The investigation has already swept up several of Bolsonaro's closest aides.

Bolsonaro hopes to overturn the ineligibility ruling and attempt a comeback in the 2026 presidential elections.&nbsp;

While speaking on his podcast this week, Trump Jr said they discussed opening the briefing room to more independent journalists and social media influencers.

“We had the conversation about opening up the press room to a lot of these independent journalists,” he said.

“Will the failing New York Times apologize to its readers for getting years of “Trump” coverage so wrong,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Tuesday morning. “They write such phony ‘junk,’ knowing full well how incorrect it is, only meaning to demean.”

He then specifically called out national political correspondent Maggie Haberman as a "third-rate writer and fourth-rate intellect, writes story after story, always terrible, and yet I almost never speak to her.”

This comes just after the New York Times published a story highlighting an internal investigation his transition team had conducted around top Trump aide Boris Epshteyn, alleging he solicited payment from candidates for top Cabinet posts to take favour with Trump. Later, Epshteyn denied those allegations.&nbsp;

A gruesome incident of child abuse has come to the fore in England where a mother kept her daughter hidden in a drawer for three years. She didn't want her partner or her other three kids to know about her, so decided to put her in there. The woman has now been jailed, Daily Mail reported.

The case came up at the Chester Crown Court where horrific details about the little girl's condition came to light. She had never seen daylight and did not know about "fresh air". She was only discovered three weeks before her third birthday by the woman's partner, who came to the house to use the toilet. At that time the woman was not there, and the man accidentally came across her in the drawer. The girl was in the drawer of the woman's divan bed.&nbsp;

The almost three-year-old girl was severely malnourished and looked like a seven-month-old baby. The woman used to feed her milky Weetabix via a syringe. She even left the infant alone when she took the other children to school or went to work.&nbsp;

She even left her alone during a Christmas trip to her home, where she stayed for a few days with her relatives. The girl was left alone to "fend for herself" and had no access to food for long periods of time. She did not also respond to her own name.&nbsp;

The girl was found with matted hair, deformities, rashes, a cleft pallet, and other medical issues. The mother did not take the girl to any doctor either to get her checked.

The woman admitted child cruelty and was jailed for seven and a-half years. Offences happened from around the start of 2020 until 2023.

<h2>Woman starved the girl</h2>

Honorary Recorder of Chester Judge Steven Everett told the woman, "You starved that little girl of any love, any proper affection, any proper attention, any interaction with others, a proper diet, much-needed medical attention."

"You attempted to control this situation as carefully as you could but by sheer chance your terrible secret was discovered," she added.

He added that the "consequences for (the child) were nothing short of catastrophic - physically, psychologically and socially."

The child was an "intelligent little girl who is now perhaps slowly coming to life from what was almost a living death in that room".&nbsp;

Prosecutor Sion ap Mihangel said, "She was kept in a drawer in the bedroom, not taken outside, not socialised, no interaction with anybody else."

US President Joe Biden announced a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hezbollah on Tuesday (Nov. 26), which came into effect early Wednesday morning.&nbsp;

The long-awaited deal came after months of conflict between the Lebanese militant group and the Jewish nation.&nbsp;

While announcing the deal, France and the US, who played the mediators, said in a joint statement that the ceasefire deal would end the fighting in Lebanon and secure Israel from the "threat of Hezbollah."&nbsp;

Here's what we know about the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire deal:

<h2>A 'permanent' deal</h2>

Joe Biden briefed the media while announcing the deal said that it is "designed to be a permanent ceasefire".

According to the ceasefire agreement, Hezbollah will remove its fighters and weapons from the area between the Blue Line over 60 days.&nbsp;

The Blue Line is the demarcation line that divides Lebanon from Israel and the Golan Heights.

The agreement further says that Hezbollah fighters will be replaced by the Lebanese army forces in the area around the Blue Line.&nbsp;

The Lebanese army&nbsp;will ensure the removal of Hezbollah weapons and its infrastructure from the area and will further prevent their rebuilding.&nbsp;

Meanwhile, over the same 60 days, Israel will remove its forces and civilians from the area.&nbsp;

Biden added that it would enable civilians from both sides to return home.&nbsp;

<h2>5,000 Lebanese troops in southern parts</h2>

The deal further asks for the deployment of 5,000 Lebanese army officials to the southern part of the nation.&nbsp;

However, the Lebanese army has reportedly said it does not have the required resources, like money, manpower, and equipment, to execute what the agreement asks.&nbsp;

But many Western officials have said that at this point, Hezbollah has weakened, and that emerges as an opportunity for the Lebanese government to re-establish control in the territory, said a BBC report.&nbsp;

<h2>Monitoring of the implementation</h2>

According to the report, the United States and France will join the existing tripartite mechanism, comprising UNIFIL, Lebanon, and Israel, which will be charged with monitoring violations.

"There will be no US combat troops in the area, but there will be military support for the Lebanese Armed Forces, as we've done in the past. But in this case, it'll be typically done with the Lebanese army and in conjunction with the French military as well," a US official told BBC.&nbsp;

<h2>Israel said 'will attack' if deal is violated by Hezbollah</h2>

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed after the deal was announced that his nation would respond to any violation by Hezbollah.

"If Hezbollah violates the agreement and tries to arm itself, we will attack. If it tries to rebuild terrorist infrastructure near the border, we will attack. If it launches a rocket, if it digs a tunnel, if it brings in a truck carrying rockets, we will attack,” Netanyahu said.&nbsp;

The US showed full support to Israel as Biden responded to Netanyahu's statement, saying, "If Hezbollah or anyone else breaks the deal and poses a direct threat to Israel, then Israel retains the right to self-defence consistent with international law."
