Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, 75, is scheduled to undergo prostate surgery on Sunday, his office announced on Saturday. This comes amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinian Islamist group Hamas in Gaza.

Netanyahu underwent a medical examination on Wednesday at Jerusalem’s Hadassah Hospital, where he was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection caused by benign prostate enlargement, according to a statement from his team.

As a result, the Prime Minister will undergo prostate removal surgery on Sunday, his office confirmed.

This follows previous health procedures: Netanyahu underwent hernia surgery in March and had a pacemaker implanted in July 2023.
