- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was reportedly resting in a hospital on Sunday following an emergency heart treatment as protests erupted throughout the nation and opposition to his administration’s disputed judicial reform proposal reached a fever pitch.
- Netanyahu, 73, felt good after having a cardiac pacemaker implanted, according to Netanyahu’s physicians, who reported this on Sunday. He planned to move on with the judicial reform as soon as he was released because he was anticipated to be released later in the day.
- For seven months, Israel has seen widespread protests against the revision, which would give the government more control over the nomination of justices and restrict the Supreme Court’s capacity to overturn laws.
- In preparation for the vote on Monday, hundreds of thousands of Israelis went to the streets on Saturday night, and many more marched into Jerusalem and camped overnight nearby.
- The hospitalization adds yet another twist to a dramatic chain of occurrences that would undoubtedly influence Israel’s destiny.
- The country’s biggest internal crisis, which has rocked the economy, exposed vulnerabilities in the military, and put to the strain the delicate social fabric holding the divided nation together, comes as the longest-serving Israeli leader faces the greatest challenge of his tenure.
- According to a story in The Times of Israel, dehydration was the root cause of Netanyahu’s cardiac problem. He was admitted to the hospital a week ago for dehydration, and the physicians placed a cardiac monitoring device.
- He was admitted to the hospital once more on Sunday as a result of the device’s irregularities, which made a pacemaker necessary. His physicians stated that the pacemaker insertion proceeded without a hitch and that his heart is entirely normal.
