Netanyahu Has Been Diagnosed With Grade 3 Prostate Cancer – Reuter

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will undergo prostate removal surgery on Sunday after he was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection, his office said.

The 75-year-old leader underwent a test at Hadassah Hospital on Wednesday, where he was “diagnosed with a urinary tract infection resulting from a benign prostate enlargement,” the prime minister’s office said in a statement.

“As a result, the prime minister will undergo prostate removal surgery,” it said.

In March, Netanyahu underwent a hernia surgery, while in July last year, doctors implanted a pacemaker after a medical scare.

Earlier this month, Netanyahu took the stand in his long-running trial for alleged corruption. This week, Israel’s attorney general ordered police to open an investigation into Netanyahu’s wife on suspicion of harassing political opponents and a witness in the corruption trial.
