Israel ex-PM Ariel Sharon 'critically ill' - BBC News










The condition of Israel's former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon - who has been in a coma since 2006 - has worsened and is now critical, "with some danger to life", his doctors say.


Mr Sharon, 85, is suffering from a malfunction of several organs including the kidneys, they said.


He became prime minister in 2001 and suffered a mild stroke in 2005.


After a second, major stroke in 2006, he went into a coma and has been in a persistent vegetative state ever since.
