The Saudi Royal Court confirmed that King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud has been discharged from the King Faisal Specialist Hospital in Jeddah after completing his routine medical examinations. This update, reported by the Saudi Press Agency, comes shortly after the Court's announcement on Wednesday that the King had been admitted for these checks.

Since ascending to the throne in January 2015, King Salman’s health has been an ongoing focus of attention both within Saudi Arabia and internationally, given his crucial role in guiding the kingdom's strategic direction and influencing global oil markets.

King Salman's leadership has been marked by significant reformative efforts, most notably the Vision 2030 initiative, which aims to diversify the Saudi economy beyond oil and implement extensive social reforms, including enhancing women's rights and boosting public sector services.

The King's recent hospital discharge is expected to provide reassurance about the stability of Saudi leadership. As he resumes his official duties, King Salman continues to spearhead transformative policies that resonate with both regional dynamics and broader global economic interests.
