(JNS) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was released from the hospital on Sunday afternoon after reportedly suffering from dehydration.
The prime minister was kept at Sheba Medical Center in Ramat Gan overnight Saturday for observation after being admitted to the emergency department earlier in the day apparently suffering from dehydration. The weekly Cabinet meeting, which usually takes place on Sunday mornings, was accordingly postponed to Monday.
During Netanyahu’s hospitalization, doctors implanted a heart monitoring device, also known as a subcutaneous Holter, which will be used for routine monitoring.
The 73-year-old briefly lost consciousness in his private home in Caesarea and subsequently hit his head on the floor before checking himself into the emergency room.
