Former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been hospitalized after feeling unwell during the Jewish fasting day of Yom Kippur

Israel's public broadcaster Kan said Netanyahu, 72, was taken to Jerusalem's Shaarei Tzedek hospital after feeling chest pains while attending synagogue services. Local media quoted the hospital as saying he underwent a series of tests that came out normal, but was being kept under observation overnight.
In a statement on social media, Netanyahu said, “I feel better and thank everyone for the support and love.”
The hospitalization comes less than a month before Israel holds its fifth national election in under four years.

RE: Heart pains...
Did Netanyahu receive multiple Covid-19 vaccinations?
Acid reflux from not eating or drinking.
Happens to my wife every YK. She drinks a little water on doctor’s orders.
Vaxxed ... I know more people who have died from the vax than have died from Covid.
I don’t disagree with you re: the vax, in general.
But this was simple acid reflux from fasting for Yom Kippur.
Probably happens to every middle aged person in Israel, but he’s of the age that chest pains have to be taken seriously.
