A report says a former Mossad agent helped Brazilian Senator Flávio Bolsonaro leave the country despite a judicial order barring him from travelling abroad. The accounts cite findings from a Brazilian security agency investigation and report that the assistance involved travel through Argentina and onward to the United States.
According to reporting summarized by multiple outlets, the alleged operation was planned before the second round of Brazil’s presidential election. One report says the former intelligence officer entered Brazil shortly before the runoff and accompanied Bolsonaro on a trip from Brasília toward the Argentine border, with investigators later tracing movements using security footage and identifying vehicles and drivers involved in crossing a bridge into Argentina.
After reaching Argentina, the family is reported to have boarded an executive jet, which then flew to the United States with a refuelling stop in Ecuador. While the outlets broadly align on the core sequence—judicial travel ban, route via Argentina, and U.S. arrival—coverage differs in how much background is provided and in emphasis on election timing and the agent’s alleged planning role.
