On June 26, a military coup occurred in Bolivia led by former military commander Juan Jose Zuniga, who stormed the central government in La Paz with armored vehicles and troops, vowing to 'restore democracy.' President Luis Arce urged the public to resist the coup, resulting in Zuniga's arrest and the failure of the coup within a few hours. The quick, dramatic events highlighted Bolivia's longstanding economic and political crises but ended swiftly as rebel forces withdrew, Zuniga was detained, and a new military leader was appointed.
