SAO PAULO—Brazilian ex-President Jair Bolsonaro was discharged from the hospital Sunday three weeks after undergoing surgery for a bowel obstruction.

The medical team at the DF Star Hospital in Brasilia, the country’s capital, said that he left intensive care on Wednesday but spent the past days recovering before being released Sunday. His health condition is stable and he started on a liquid diet, his doctors said.
