It appears a SECOND coup may be underway in Bolivia right now.
Not entirely confirmed, but Evo Morales (who was ousted as president after a right wing putsch a couple years ago) is calling it a coup and he'd know. Current president Luis Arce is decrying "irregular military activity" in the capital of La Paz including a major mobilization of military police and armored vehicles. He's asked the military to "respect democracy."
Not really any English language coverage of this yet, but it it all seems to have started at 3pm local time, not even an hour ago so that isn't surprising.

Colombia, Bolivia back Brazil’s Lula in Israel row over Gaza war comments
South American allies voice ‘solidarity’ with Brazil after Israel lambasts Lula for comparing war on Gaza with Holocaust.
Tumblr media
Colombia and Bolivia are backing Brazil as its diplomatic row with Israel escalated after President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva accused Israel of committing genocide in Gaza, comparing its actions with the Holocaust.
Gustavo Petro and Luis Arce, the presidents of Colombia and Bolivia respectively, both expressed “solidarity” with Lula on Tuesday, after he was slammed by Israel for calling its war on Gaza a “genocide” against Palestinians and compared it with Adolf Hitler’s campaign to exterminate the Jewish people during the Holocaust.
“In Gaza there is a genocide and thousands of children, women and elderly civilians are cowardly murdered,” Petro said on X. “Lula has only spoken the truth and the truth is defended or barbarism will annihilate us. The entire region must unite to immediately end the violence in Palestine.”
Arce also took to social media to link arms with Lula. “History will not forgive those who are indifferent to this barbarity,” he wrote. The Brazilian president, he said, had told the truth about the genocide being committed against the “brave Palestinian people”.

Former Bolivian president Morales threatens chaos over rape accusations
Evo Morales, Bolivia’s former president who faced a legal investigation into allegations of human trafficking and rape of minors, warned of road closures and protests if authorities proceed to arrest him.
The charges against Morales are based on allegations that he had an illicit relationship with a minor during his presidency that resulted in the birth of a child. The former leader is now barricading himself in a coca plantation in Chapare.
He denies the allegations, calling them “politically motivated” and part of a wider campaign led by President Luis Arce. Morales also insists the charges are an attempt to weaken the Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS) ahead of next year’s presidential elections.
Bolivian prosecutor Sandra Gutiérrez issued the arrest warrant after Morales failed to appear for questioning. She emphasised that the judicial process was moving forward despite Morales’ refusal to cooperate. Meanwhile, his supporters vowed to resist any attempts to detain him, warning of possible riots across the country.
Morales, who remains a major figure in Bolivian politics, has accused Arce of orchestrating a judicial attack against him, whereas Arce’s allies argue that Morales is trying to play the victim in order to regain political relevance.
As tensions rise, Bolivia faces the prospect of major upheaval as Morales’ supporters threaten to block roads.

While the army attempted to storm the palace, hundreds of Bolivian people began to mobilize to demand that democracy be respected and the army stand down. These protests with members of mass organizations, trade unions, and the general population were met with heavy repression by the military police officers who shot tear gas indiscriminately and blocked off access to the Plaza Murillo.

Meeting between Lula and Arce signals new era of bilateral ties
Tumblr media
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva told his Bolivian counterpart Luis Arce Catacora during their encounter in Santa Cruz de la Sierra that “there is no individual way out in South America,” Agencia Brasil reported. Both leaders agreed that the bilateral meeting spelled the beginning of a “new era” in bilateral ties now that Bolivia is a full member of the Southern Common Market (Mercosur). It was Lula's first trip to Bolivia during his third term in office while Arce has been to Brazil four times in the past 12 months.
“There is no individual way out for any country in South America. Either we get together, form a bloc, make joint decisions, and implement them, or we will continue for another century as developing countries,” said Lula.
“We have signed several projects to strengthen the capacity of public agents to combat human trafficking, [and] drug trafficking, and improve migration management. We also began negotiations to make it possible for Brazilians to access public healthcare in Bolivia and, likewise, for Bolivians to use the Unified Health System in Brazil,” he added.
Lula also mentioned the projects to install a fertilizer factory on the dry border between the two countries, between Corumbá, Mato Grosso do Sul, and Porto Quijaro, and the construction of a binational bridge over the Mamoré River, between Guajará-Mirim, in Rondônia, and Guayaramerín, in Bolivia.
