RIYADH: Saudi Arabia's King Salman bin Abdulaziz will remain in the hospital after undergoing tests, including a colonoscopy, state media reported on Sunday.

The Middle Eastern kingdom has for years sought to quell speculation over the health of the 86-year-old monarch, who has ruled the world's top oil exporter since 2015.
