Ismail Sabri in stable condition


PETALING JAYA: Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob (pic) is in stable condition after he was found unconscious and rushed to hos­pital.

His aide Azran Fitri Rahim said the former prime minister fainted at home at about 2.30am yesterday due to hypertension.

“Thank God, his condition stabilised this afternoon and he is fully conscious.

“However, he still requires close monitoring by doctors at a hospital in Damansara.

“Doctors have also advised that he receives no visitors for now until he fully recovers,” Azran said in an Instagram post yesterday.

“Only close family members are allowed to visit Ismail Sabri. Thank you to everyone who prayed for him to recover,” he said.

The Bera MP, who turned 65 on Jan 18, was Malaysia’s ninth prime minister from August 2021 to November 2022.

He was also Umno vice-president from 2018 to 2023.
