Brazil's President Jair Bolsonaro has been rushed to hospital with an intestinal blockage after feeling unwell while on vacation.

The president posted a photo from his hospital bed on Twitter, saying doctors had inserted a nasogastric tube and were evaluating potential surgery.

Doctors said his condition was stable.

Mr Bolsonaro, 66, has been admitted to hospital several times since being stabbed in the abdomen during his 2018 presidential campaign.

In his tweet, the president said he had started feeling unwell on Sunday afternoon after lunch. He was flown from the southern state of Santa Catarina, where he was vacationing, to the Vila Nova Star hospital in São Paulo.

Television images showed the president walking down the stairs of the presidential plane after landing in the early hours of Monday.
