Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu treated for early-stage prostate cancer

Doctors found a less than 1-centimeter malignant tumor during routine follow-up, and Netanyahu says targeted radiation removed it completely.

  • Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed Friday he successfully underwent treatment for an early-stage malignant prostate tumor, declaring he is now in "excellent physical condition."
  • Following surgery in 2024 for an enlarged benign prostate, doctors discovered a 0.9-centimeter mass during routine monitoring at Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem.
  • Netanyahu delayed the report's release by two months to prevent Iran from spreading "even more false propaganda against Israel" during the ongoing conflict.
  • Targeted radiation therapy "removed the problem and left no trace of it," allowing the Prime Minister to continue working throughout the procedure, according to medical staff.
  • Netanyahu is scheduled to visit the White House in the coming weeks as the administration seeks to broker a lasting peace deal with Iran.
