Bolsonaro seeks court approval for surgery

Jair Bolsonaro, the former president of Brazil, is asking the court to let him have surgery this week.

He is in prison right now because he was found guilty of trying to overthrow the government.

The court has already said he can leave prison to have the surgery, but they need to approve the exact date.

Bolsonaro's lawyers want him to go to the hospital on Wednesday and have the surgery the next day.

He has a history of health problems, including being stabbed in 2018.

The court will decide if he can have the surgery on the proposed date.
