Lula da Silva was hospitalized at the Sirio Libanes Hospital in Brasilia on Saturday night, October 19, after falling in the bathroom of the Alvorada Palace. The Brazilian president's participation in the 16th BRICS summit has been canceled.

Writes UNN with reference to Globo.

President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, 78, suffered a domestic accident on Saturday evening at his official residence, Palácio da Alvorada in Brasilia. He was hospitalized at the Sirio Libanes Hospital in the federal capital.

He had previously been scheduled to travel to Kazan, Russia, to participate in the 16th BRICS summit. Doctors forbade Lula to make long trips, especially by air, so the Brazilian president canceled his trip to Russia, which was scheduled to begin this Sunday.

According to the president's press service, Lula will still take part in the summit, but via video conference.
