In Bolivia, a dramatic military coup unfolded on June 27, 2024, as the Army Chief of Staff, Junijia, led armored vehicles and troops to smash through the gate of the presidential palace, pledging to 'restore democracy.' However, the lightning coup concluded within 3 hours with Junijia being arrested. President Arce quickly appointed a new Army Chief of Staff amidst the crisis. The failed coup was met with strong resistance from the president's supporters and security team, and neighboring countries such as Brazil, Chile, and Venezuela supported President Arce's administration, contributing to the swift end of the coup.
