Silvio Berlusconi Hospitalized with Leukemia in ICU.
Former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has been diagnosed with leukemia and is being treated in a cardiac unit of Milan’s San Raffaele hospital. The 86-year-old media mogul and billionaire has suffered from repeated health problems in recent years, including heart surgery, prostate cancer, and COVID-19. Berlusconi's Forza Italia party is part of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s right-wing coalition, but he does not have a role in government. There has been no official comment on his condition, but a source close to the matter confirmed the diagnosis of leukemia, a cancer of the blood cells.
