Brazil deploys military to boost security in Rio for G20 summit

Brazil's military will enhance security in Rio de Janeiro during the G20 summit on November 18-19. The state's security secretary announced the deployment under a law allowing military support when local police are insufficient. This measure, known as Guarantee of Law and Order, has been previously used for major events like the World Cup and Olympics. The military will patrol the city, focusing on areas where violence has recently occurred. Leaders, including U.S. President Joe Biden and China's Xi Jinping, are confirmed to attend the summit. The military's involvement aims to ensure safety for all participants.
