Lightning has struck during a rally of supporters of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro in Brasilia, leaving 89 people injured.

According to the Fire Department, the supporters gathered in the rain to back Bolsonaro, who was sentenced to 27 years in prison last year over a failed coup attempt following his election defeat.

However, footage shared online shows the crowd under umbrellas and raincoats reacting in shock as a bright flash of lightning and loud thunder hit the area.
