A brawl broke out during a session of the Bolivian Assembly between government and opposition lawmakers on Tuesday.

The session heated during a debate on recent arrests of former officials of the previous interim government of Jeannine Áñez.

While some speakers said Áñez's administration was a legal transitional government after election fraud, others said it was a coup to overthrow former president Evo Morales.
