Mizrahi allowed him to leave and said another date would be set for the continuation of his testimony.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy medical condition is proper, and some say excellent,\u201d Netanyahu said. \u201cI did not suffer from pancreatic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jpost.com\/health-and-wellness\/article-894114\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">cancer<\/a>. If that were the case, I would no longer be here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph-section article-body-paragraph\">Netanyahu said he exercises, undergoes medical tests, and that his indicators were \u201ccompletely normal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph-section article-body-paragraph\">He said he had suffered for years from an enlarged prostate, which had been benign, including after an operation to reduce it. Toward the end of 2025, however, an additional test showed the beginning of an early-stage cancerous growth in the prostate, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Amichai Stein and Tobias Siegal contributed to this report.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was admitted to Hadassah Ein Kerem hospital on Monday evening for a dental procedure,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":74401,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[16469],"tags":[244,28085,4814,48518],"class_list":["post-89153","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-benjamin-netanyahu","tag-benjamin-netanyahu","tag-hadassah-hospital","tag-medical","tag-medical-test"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@people\/116647833455785780","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/89153","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=89153"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/89153\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/74401"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=89153"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=89153"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=89153"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
