🇧🇷🇧🇷⚡️Brasília, Brazil: Man threatens to detonate bomb at Ministry of Social Development

On Thursday, May 22, a man accompanied by a pregnant woman and two children threatened to blow up a bomb at Brazil’s Ministry of Social Development (MDS), located in the Esplanada dos Ministérios, in Brasília.

According to Metrópoles, witnesses said the man had tried to enter the ministry after having an administrative request denied. When barred, he reportedly threw an explosive device — likely a type of large firecracker — outside the building. Staff heard the blast even from the upper floors.

The Military Police of the Federal District (PMDF) responded quickly and launched “Operation Petardo”, which is their standard protocol for bomb threats. The Special Operations Battalion (BOPE) and the Fire Department evacuated the area. The man held what appeared to be a detonator and a suspicious package, and at one point carried a child in his arms.

After negotiation, he surrendered. He and the woman were taken to the Hospital Regional da Asa Norte (HRAN) and will be taken to the Civil Police Headquarters of the Federal District, according to Agência Brasil.

The incident happened near Block A of the Esplanade, which also houses the Ministry of Sports and the Ministry of Human Rights and Citizenship. The area remains under police control.
