It was at 3.45pm on Sunday, local time, that Bolsonaro supporters broke through federal military police cordons at the National Congress and climbed onto the roof of the building.

At the same time, 300 meters away, a group of people entered the premises of the Supreme Court.

At the same time, the presidential palace, located in the same area, was also captured.

After just over three chaotic hours, the police announced that they had regained control of the situation.
