Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, aged 79, underwent emergency surgery at Sirio-Libanes Hospital in São Paulo to drain a hematoma from his head, following severe headaches. The president is currently in stable condition, speaking and eating normally, but is being kept in the ICU for three days with a drain in his head. His personal physician stated that the bleeding was unusual and not common. Lula's daughter expressed concern over the emergency nature of the surgery, while his wife, Janja da Silva, confirmed that he would soon return to work. The medical team has assured that Lula will not suffer any long-term effects from the procedure and will resume a normal life after his hospital stay. The Minister of Institutional Relations, Alexandre Padilha, indicated that Lula's hospitalization would not impact the government's priority projects in Congress.
