Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had a pacemaker successfully implanted Sunday.

His doctors said the 73-year-old politician is expected to be released later in the day.

Netanyahu had a heart monitor implanted a week ago after a dehydration bout.

His medical procedures come as Israel is experiencing massive protests because of the government’s plan to overhaul Israel’s judicial system.

A final vote on the overhaul is scheduled for Monday.

If Netanyahu is released Sunday, he will likely participate in Monday’s vote. The Sunday Cabinet meeting has been postponed.

The overhaul includes plans to place restraints on the Israeli Supreme Court’s power. The proposal has opened up deep fissures in Israeli society and has caused concerns among Israel’s allies.
