Israel Prime Minister Ehud Olmert Has Prostate Cancer
Israel Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has announced that he has early-stage prostate cancer. The disease was caught early and should not affect his duties as Prime Minister, he says.
"I will be able to carry out my duties fully before the treatment and within hours afterward," Olmert said. "My doctors ... informed me that there is a full chance of recovery and there is nothing about the tumor that is life-threatening or liable to impair my performance or my ability to carry out the mission which has been bestowed upon me."
Olmert will have surgery in the next few months.
