〔即時新聞／綜合報導〕英國白金漢宮週一（5日）宣布，國王查爾斯三世（King Charles III）被診斷出癌症，這是上月在倫敦一家醫院接受攝護腺肥大手術後發現，不是攝護腺癌，但未披露是哪種型別的癌症，只表示查爾斯週一起接受定期治療。醫師建議推遲公開活動，但聲明中補充：「在此期間，國王陛下將繼續照常處理國家事務和官方文書工作。」
綜合CNN、BBC等外媒報導，75歲的查爾斯三世週一早上從諾福克郡桑德靈厄姆（Sandringham in Norfolk）返回倫敦，白金漢宮表示，國王已開始接受門診治療，他對自己所面對的境遇，保持完全積極樂觀的態度，並期待盡快恢復全面的公共職責。這段時間，預計有其他高級王室成員在治療期間幫助替代他。
白金漢宮的聲明指出：「國王感謝他的醫療團隊迅速干預，這要歸功於他最近的醫院手術。」原來是查爾斯在他最近治療攝護腺肥大時，被診斷出患有某種癌症，但不是攝護腺癌。
白金漢宮也透露，「國王陛下選擇分享他的診斷結果是為了防止猜測，並希望能幫助公眾理解世界各地所有受癌症影響的人。」
白金漢宮聲明全文：
During The King’s recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted. Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer.
His Majesty has today commenced a schedule of regular treatments, during which time he has been advised by doctors to postpone public-facing duties. Throughout this period, His Majesty will continue to undertake State business and official paperwork as usual.
The King is grateful to his medical team for their swift intervention, which was made possible thanks to his recent hospital procedure. He remains wholly positive about his treatment and looks forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible.
His Majesty has chosen to share his diagnosis to prevent speculation and in the hope it may assist public understanding for all those around the world who are affected by cancer.
