The Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, "successfully underwent a routine colonoscopy" Friday morning in Jerusalem, his office announced in a statement.

Netanyahu is 75 years old. His hospitalization comes as the United States announced Thursday that they had received Israel's approval for a cease-fire proposal in Gaza, for which Washington is awaiting a response from the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas.
