Malaysia's Ex-PM Mahathir Hospitalised with Hip Fracture After Fall at Home
Mahathir Mohamad, aged 100, was conscious on arrival and is under medical observation due to his history of heart issues and recent fall at home.
- On Tuesday morning, Mahathir Mohamad was brought to hospital after a fall and taken by ambulance to the National Heart Institute in Kuala Lumpur, arriving at around 9.30 am for observation.
- He fell while moving from a balcony to his living room at home, and Mahathir Mohamad's prior bypass surgery and heart attacks made medical observation necessary, Sufi Yusoff said.
- Sufi Yusoff said Mahathir Mohamad was conscious after the fall but it is too early to say whether he will be admitted, pending updates from the attending medical team.
- Mahathir Mohamad has remained active in opposition politics despite holding no party affiliation, working to unite opposition forces against Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim in a feud shaping politics for two decades.
- Mahathir Mohamad served as prime minister from 1981–2003 and 2018–2020, reaching age 94 during his second stint, and a June 15, 2025 photo showed him with Hasmah Mohamad Ali during outings last year.
