On June 14, 2020, Moroccan King Mohammed VI, 56, underwent a successful heart surgery in Rabat, Morocco, after suffering a heart rhythm disorder.
The surgery, which was a complete success, involved a radiofrequency ablation to restore the king's normal heart rhythm.
King Mohammed VI has ruled Morocco since July 1999, following the death of his father King Hassan II.
According to a statement issued by the royal Cabinet, the king's surgery was a success, similar to the one he underwent in February 2018 in Paris.
