According to data from the Flightradar24 website, the Baires Fly flight took off just after midnight (0300 GMT) on Wednesday from the Argentine town of Puerto Iguazu in the country’s northeast. That flight landed in Guayaquil shortly before 4:00 a.m. (0900 GMT) before taking off again, AFP journalists and Flightradar24 data confirmed. Bolsonaro’s final destination is unknown, but the US State Department said it would issue visas to the senator and his family.
