Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will have his prostate removed on Sunday after he was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection resulting from a benign prostate enlargement, his office announced on Saturday.
The operation will take place at Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem and will require full anesthesia. The prime minister will remain hospitalized for several days, according to his attorney, Amit Hadad, who submitted a request Sunday to the Tel Aviv District Court to cancel his scheduled testimony this week in his ongoing corruption trial. The Attorney General’s Office approved the request on Sunday.
Justice Minister Yariv Levin will act as caretaker prime minister while Netanyahu is incapacitated. Defense Minister Israel Katz will serve as chairman of the political-security cabinet.
“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
Last year Netanyahu, 75, was fitted with a pacemaker to control an irregular heartbeat. He was also hospitalized for dehydration. Earlier this year, Netanyahu underwent hernia surgery.
