Original Note:
The refugees were Lebanese residents with Brazilian citizenship, so Brazil was evacuating its own people - the post ignores this important context https://www.beirut.com/en/733348/president-lula-welcomes-229-lebanese-evacuees-in-sao-paulo/ https://agenciabrasil.ebc.com.br/en/internacional/noticia/2024-10/president-lula-welcomes-brazilians-repatriated-lebanon This is something that has also been done by many Western countries, including the US and the UK https://www.nbcnews.com/now/video/250-americans-evacuated-from-lebanon-state-department-says-220817989953 https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/lebanon-evacuation-flight-uk-israel-hezbollah-b2621735.html
