Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he recently had a successful treatment for cancer and he was “in excellent physical condition.”
In a post on X, the Israeli leader said the doctors discovered “a very early stage of a malignant tumor in the prostate.
The 76-year-old leader said the tumor was discovered during a routine check-up after surgery for an enlarged benign prostate a year and a half ago.
“A year and a half ago, I underwent successful surgery for an enlarged benign prostate, and since then I have been under routine medical monitoring. In the last monitoring, a tiny spot of less than a centimeter was discovered in the prostate,” he said.
“Upon examination, it turned out to be a very early stage of a malignant tumor, with no spread or metastases whatsoever. The doctors told me that this is very common among men my age,” he added.
He said he was given two options: to remain under monitoring or to undergo treatment and remove the problem.
“You already know me. When I’m given information in time about a potential danger, I want to address it immediately. This is true on the national level and also on the personal level,” he added.
The Israeli prime minister said he was healthy and in “excellent physical condition”.
