According to a statement issued by the Syrian presidency, First Lady Asma al-Assad was diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia (leukemia).
The statement said Asma, 48, would undergo a special treatment protocol that would require her to isolate and that she would step away from public engagements as a result.
In August 2019, Asma said she had fully recovered from breast cancer that she said had been discovered early.
