Joe Biden undergoes surgery to remove skin cancer on forehead
Washington (AP): Joe Biden recently underwent surgery to remove skin cancer lesions, a spokesperson said Thursday, the latest health challenge for the former US president.
His spokesperson Kelly Scully confirmed the surgery after Inside Edition published a video of Biden leaving church in Delaware with a fresh scar on his forehead.
She said Biden received Mohs surgery, a procedure used to cut away skin until no evidence of cancer remains.
Two years ago, while Biden was in office, he had a lesion removed from his chest. The lesion was basal cell carcinoma, a common form of skin cancer.
In March, Biden's office announced that he had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that had spread to his bones.
“Cancer touches us all,” Biden wrote on social media at the time.
“Like so many of you, Jill and I have learned that we are strongest in the broken places.”
The Biden family has faced cancer repeatedly over the years. Biden's son Beau died of a brain tumour, and his wife, Jill, had two cancerous lesions removed.

Man, wife arrested for murdering her lover in Mumbra
Thane (PTI): A man and his wife were arrested on Thursday in Mumbra in Thane district for allegedly murdering her lover, a police official said.
The probe into the case began after Raju Yadav, a resident of the Khardi Road area, was found dead with his throat slit on February 17, the Mumbra police station official said.
"Yadav, who was himself married, had been in a relationship with Farheen Mohammad Abid Malik (27) for the past eight months. Farheen's husband Mohammad Abid Abdul Wajid Malik (29) confronted her, after which the duo decided to kill Yadav," he said.
"On the midnight of February 17, Farheen called Yadav to an under-construction flat in the building, where she gave him a cold drink mixed with a chemical. After Raju became unconscious, Mohammad Malik came there and slit his throat. The couple has been remanded in police custody," the official said.
Further probe into the case, including where the chemical was procured, is underway, he said.
