Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will undergo surgery to have his prostate removed, his office has said.
He was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection resulting from a benign prostate enlargement.
Mr Netanyahu, 75, will go into hospital on Sunday.
He had surgery for a hernia earlier this year and had a pacemaker fitted last year.
The hernia was discovered during a routine check-up.
His pacemaker was fitted after a “temporary arrhythmia” was detected, doctors said.
Justice Minister Yariv Levin, who is also deputy prime minister, filled his role temporarily during the procedure.
It comes after the Israeli military raided one of the last working hospitals in northern Gaza and arrested its director.
Israel has been at war with Hamas since the October 7 attacks last year in which around 1,200 people were killed and another 250 abducted.
More than 45,400 Palestinians, over half of them women and children, have been killed in the war and more than 108,000 wounded, according to the Hamas-run Palestinian health ministry. The figures do not distinguish between civilians and combatants.
