Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu underwent successful surgery at Sheba Medical Center in Ramat Gan for the implantation of a cardiac pacemaker. The Times of Israel reports it. The hospital, specifies the Israeli information site, communicated that the procedure was completed successfully and without complications, adding that the premier is in good condition and will remain under observation in the cardiology department in Sheba.
