Italy's former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi has died, according to Italian media.
He was treated in intensive care at Milan's San Raffaele Hospital in April for a lung infection related to leukaemia, his doctors said at the time.
They added he had chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia - a rare type of blood cancer - that was not acute.contracting COVIDAfter being discharged from a 10-day hospital stay, he said the disease had been"insidious" and was the most dangerous challenge he had ever faced. He has had a pacemaker for years, underwent heart surgery to replace an aortic valve in 2016 and had overcome prostate cancer.
Mr Berlusconi stepped down as prime minister for the last time in 2011 as Italy came close to a Greece-style debt crisis, facing several scandals, most notably around his notorious"bunga bunga" parties. A decade ago he was banned from holding public office over a tax fraud conviction stemming from dealings in his media empire, but the ban was lifted in 2018.
