Saudi king leaves hospital one week after surgery.



Saudi Arabia’s King Salman left a Riyadh hospital on Thursday after a 10-day stay that included an operation to remove his gallbladder, quieting speculation that his son Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman might soon accede to the throne.

The 84-year-old monarch walked out of King Faisal Specialist Hospital with the help of his usual cane but otherwise under his own power, a video published by state news agency SPA showed. Prince Mohammed, often referred to by his initials MBS, followed close behind, wearing a face mask.

In a statement, the Royal Court provided no new details about the king’s condition after saying a week ago he would stay in the hospital for an unspecified period following the surgery. He left the hospital a day ahead of Eid al-Adha, one of Islam’s most important festivals.
