RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — The head of Brazil's National Institute for Space Research left his position Friday amid criticism by President Jair Bolsonaro about the agency's reports on deforestation in the Amazon.

After meeting with the country's minister of science and technology, Ricardo Galvao said his mandate would be terminated before the end of his term next year due to an "unsustainable" situation.
