Bolivia's presidential palace has been stormed by soldiers as the country's president warned of an unfolding "coup".
Troops blocked off the entrances to La Paz's Murillo Square, where key government buildings are located, before ramming the doors of the main government building.
Soldiers then entered the building.
Armoured vehicles and troops have taken up positions on the square.
President Luis Arce had earlier warned on social media of "irregular mobilisations of some army units".
He had said that democracy must be respected.
The President in a televised message to the country alongside his ministers inside the presidential palace says they need the Bolivian people to organize and mobilize against the coup d'etat in favour of democracy.
