Bolivia’s army chief was arrested on Wednesday after deploying soldiers
and tanks to government buildings, which President Luis Arce called an attempted coup. Troops entered Plaza Murillo, leading to global
condemnation. A tank attempted to breach the presidential palace door. Surrounded by soldiers and tanks, the dismissed army chief General Juan
Jose Zuniga claimed the armed forces aimed to restructure democracy.
Later, Zuniga was captured and arrested while addressing reporters. Arce,
from a balcony, affirmed, ‘No one can take away the democracy we have
won,’ to hundreds of supporters. Al Jazeera’s Alessandro Rampietti reports
from the Colombian capital, where leaders have condemned the uprising.
