Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was released from Jerusalem's Hadassah Ein Karem Medical Center on Thursday, four days after he underwent a successful prostate surgery, his office announced.

Hadassah Medical Center confirmed in a statement that Netanyahu's condition remained stable upon his discharge and he was recovering "satisfactorily" from the surgery. "Medical follow-up after the surgery will continue, as is customary," the hospital added.

"I would like to thank the many, many citizens of Israel for their prayers, encouragement, and support that have deeply moved me and my family," Netanyahu wrote on X on Thursday night, thanking "all the doctors, nurses and medical staff, who went above and beyond."

Netanyahu, 75, went under the knife on Sunday night to remove his prostate after a urinary tract infection caused by a benign prostate enlargement was identified during an examination four days earlier.

"The prime minister has awakened from the anesthesia, is in good condition and is fully conscious," his office said on Sunday. "He has been transferred to the underground, protected recovery unit. He is expected to remain in the hospital for observation in the coming days."

The premier was moved to the underground recovery ward amid fears he could be targeted by rocket or missile fire from Lebanon or Yemen.

Netanyahu briefly left the hospital against medical advice on Tuesday to cast a decisive Knesset vote on a budget law amid coalition infighting.

On March 31, the longtime Israeli prime minister underwent successful hernia surgery, also at Hadassah Ein Karem Medical Center.

On Dec. 31, 2023, following routine annual checkups by his medical team and personal physician, Netanyahu received a clean bill of health after undergoing an emergency cardiac procedure earlier in the year.
