Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas left hospital on Monday after eight days of treatment for pneumonia. Dressed in a suit as usual and walking without assistance, Mr. Abbas, 83, gave a short statement on being discharged, saying he planned to be back at work in his office as normal on Tuesday.
“Thanks to God, I left the hospital today in good health and return to work starting tomorrow,” he said. He was admitted on May 20 with complications following an ear operation, including high fever.
