Tunisia’s 92-year-old president, Beji Caid Essebsi, was taken to a military hospital on Wednesday, the second health crisis for the leader in a month.
Hafedh Caid Essebsi the president’s son said that Essebsi was hospitalized on Wednesday after he suffered the effects of last month’s crisis, confirming an earlier report on local radio.
Essebsi, a major player in the country’s transition to democracy since 2011, had been hospitalised late last month and spent a week in hospital after suffering a “severe health crisis”.
The president has only appeared twice since leaving the hospital on July 1.
