TL;DR Summary

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will undergo surgery for a hernia on Sunday, less than a year after being fitted with a pacemaker. The 74-year-old leader's office stated that the surgery will take place while he is under general anaesthetic, and he is expected to hold a news conference before the procedure. Netanyahu's popularity has declined amid a war against Hamas in Gaza and ongoing domestic crises, including protests and his corruption trial. Justice Minister Yariv Levin will stand in for Netanyahu during the operation.
