Netanyahu to undergo operation to remove prostate on Sunday, not appear in court for trial
“On Wednesday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu underwent an examination at Hadassah Hospital, where a urinary tract infection caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia was detected. Over the past few days, the prime minister has received antibiotic treatment, which successfully eradicated the infection,” the Prime Minister’s office announced on Saturday.
“Consequently, the prime minister will undergo a procedure tomorrow to remove the prostate. Full details will be provided later,” the statement said. “Despite this, Sunday’s cabinet meeting will take place as planned.”
Although Netanyahu’s health issues began on Wednesday, no notifications of the Prime Minister’s health have been issued until now.
Prime Minister will not appear in court as a result
Netanyahu will not appear in court on Monday for his trial as a result of his operation being on the same day.
There is a chance he also will not appear in court on Tuesday and Wednesday.
