Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is still recovering from his prostate removal surgery at Jerusalem’s Hadassah Ein Kerem hospital, a source familiar with the matter says.
The premier left his hospital bed on Tuesday, two days after the operation, against the advice of his doctors, to cast a decisive vote on a budget law to ensure the legislation was approved. He then returned to the medical center.
It is unknown whether Netanyahu will be released from the hospital today.
