The Israeli leader hid the medical report for two months amid the war with Iran<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that he has undergone\u00a0treatment for early-stage prostate cancer, admitting that he delayed publication of the medical report for two months during the war with Iran.<\/p>\n

According to Netanyahu\u2019s annual medical report published on Friday, the tumor was found at a \u201cvery early stage,\u201d<\/em> with no spread or metastases, and the problem has now been fully treated. Hadassah Hospital oncology chief Aharon Popovtser said follow-up imaging and blood tests showed that \u201cthe disease has disappeared.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Netanyahu said he had asked for the information to be withheld from the public so it would not be released \u201cat the height of the war\u201d<\/em> against Iran and fuel what he called \u201cmore false propaganda against Israel.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The Israeli prime minister has insisted that physicians told him the condition was minor and common for men his age, and that he could either monitor it or treat it immediately.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou already know me. When I\u2019m given information in time about a potential danger, I want to address it immediately. This is true on the national level and also on the personal level,\u201d<\/em> he wrote in a post on X.<\/p>\n

The 76-year-old leader previously underwent surgery for an enlarged benign prostate<\/a> in 2024 and had since been under routine monitoring, during which the tumor was discovered. It remains unclear exactly when the treatment took place, and his office said the rest of the medical report showed him to be in good health.<\/p>\n
