CAIRO (Reuters) – Bahrain’s Prime Minister Sheikh Khalifa bin Salman al Khalifa, 84, has passed a regular medical examination, the state news agency BNA said on Tuesday.
The prime minister’s office said on Twitter on Saturday that Khalifa had left the country on a private visit abroad but gave no reason. His current whereabouts are not known.
Earlier this year Khalifa spent time in Germany for unspecified medical treatment, returning to Bahrain in March.
