Sharjah 24 – Reuters: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was undergoing medical assessments in an Israeli hospital on Saturday but was in good condition, his office said, with local media seeing no grounds for a handover of power.
Netanyahu, 73, was fully conscious en route to Sheba Hospital in Tel Hashomer, and walked into the emergency room, Israel's Channel 12 TV said, quoting the premier's doctor.
He was not undergoing sedation and no procedures were under way to declare him incapacitated, Channel 12 said.
Tel Hashomer is close to coastal Caesarea, where Netanyahu has a private residence. Israeli media said he was there when he reported feeling unwell.
A brief statement from his office confirmed he was at Sheba and said he was in good condition undergoing medical assessment.
